Roy Cecil Chapman is my grandfather. He married Velma Welch and they had two
sons Samuel L. and JAmes Richard Chapman.
Samuel L. is my father. He married Aurice R. JOhnson, and they had two
daughters:
Mocha Robin (ME) and Ginger Michelle.
I have two sons Walt and Cole.
They are the reason I am doing this research. I want them to know where they
came from. Any help would be grateful.
I hope that I didn't take up to much space or time.
