Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I would like to learn more about my Chappell ancestors who moved from North
Carolina to Hancock County, Indiana. I have photos of gravestones in Hancock
County, IN and a couple of marriage licenses that I will scan and send to
anyone interested. These Chappels married Denneys, Kingerys and Olveys among
others. If you connect, contact me and we will share information.
George E. Chappel (1787-1862) married Ailse L. (last name unknown)
(1797-1856). Both were born in North Carolina and are buried in the Maple
Grove/Olvey Cemetery in Vernon Township, Hancock County, IN.
Their children were:
1. Shadrack A.J. Chappel (born 1817, N.C.) married (1) Matilda Denney and (2)
her sister Sarah Denney.
2. Lewis Chappel (born 1819, N.C. & died 1897, IN) married Sophia Smith.
3. Nancy Chappel (born 1826, IN) married George Kingery in Hancock County, IN.
4. George W. Chappel (born 1824 N.C.).
5. Lydia Chappel (born 1838, IN)
6. Luretia Chappel (born 1842, IN)
Several other Chappels are buried in the same cemetery, including: Isaac and
wife Nancy A. (1841-1863); Walter A. Chappel (1888-1906); Angeline (w/o J.W.
died 1889); James T. (died 1883, age 59 years, 4 months, 6 days); Nancy A.
Chappel (1841-1863)
I'm descended from Nancy Chappel and George Kingery through their son Jacob
who married Celia Jane Reece.

G'day listers
I have had a number of queries directly and a few posted
to some lists recently about the lists going very quiet.
It is up to members on the list to post details about the
families you are researching. No one can know who you are
researching by sitting on the fence. If you are new to the
list or have been on it for a while, I encourage
you to introduce yourself and your research interests.
You may know others are researching the same family on the
list. If they have been the main one sending queries we
would still like to hear from others as well.
Dont post just a list of surnames or vague info with no
dates or area. These are usually ignored by most listers
especially experienced ones. But if you dont know something,
ASK. No question is too stupid, only those not asked.
Replies in the main to queries are hopefully being done
back to the lists. This often helps generate other
questions and replies. It is not common to find a cousin
on lists so you should not expect to. If you do find a
cousin researching the same family, great. Replies back
to the list can help other researchers not just the person
asking the question.
A friendly reminder. These lists are for PRIVATE RESEARCH
PURPOSES ONLY. If someone shares their research notes on
list or off list with you. That person still has copyright
ownership of the info and the message.
If anyone on list is a pro researcher or going to write a
book about their family. Put details on a Website or
send info to a commercial site such as Ancestry.com,
Family History.com or sending it to the LDS you must get
permission from the person you got the info from before
you do so.
Lastly please keep your queries relevant to the list you
are on. So lets get chatting and keep the messages friendly.
Everyone is still learning including me.
Happy Hunting
