Greetings,
I am an Afro-American in search if info.
My G-Grand parents were Peter and Allie/Alice Chappell of Halifax Co. Va.
Christopher Carlton a white slave owner died in 1824 (probably in King +
Queen County) Va. In his will Christopher left his daughter Polly Carlton
�one Negro Esther and her future increase�.
Dolly died July 7, 1858 without issue. In Jan 1859 my great grand mother
Allie and her children Willis, Daniel(my grandfather ) Eppa, George, and
Henry. were bought by Joel Younger for the sum of $1,500. This sum was paid
to the surviving siblings of Polly Carlton, and to the reps of her dead
siblings.
Joel Younger had in fact had posession of Allie before he bought her in 1859,
because in slave births I found Allie giving birth to three of her children in
1853, 1855, and 1858, and the owner was listed as Joel Younger.
In the 1870 Census for Halifax Co Va, Peter aged 40y and Allie aged 35 were
found with the following children: Willis 20y. George, 15y, Henry 13y,
Peter 12y, Doctor 10y, Davis 9y, Bell 7y, Willy Ann 5y, Edward 3y, and
Horace 6mo. Daniel my gfather had married under the surname �Younger and
was living with his wife Sue. When Sue married Daniel she listed her
surname as Stovall. The parents of Sue were Youngers. I suspect that Sue
had been sold to slave owner J.B. Stovall, in the home of which Daniel and
Sue were married.
In 1880 I again find Peter 50y, and Allie/Alice 50 y, with children Bell 18y,
Willie 16, Doctor 20, Lee(Peter) 22y, Henry 23y, Eppy 24y, Edward 12y,
Horace(Braxton) 11y, Milly 7y, and Corer 4y.
Other than the births of children to Allie in 1853, 1855 and 1858, and the
sale of she and her children , I found no other records whatsoever of Peter or
Allie before 1859, or after 1887, the year Peter was listed as the informant
when one of his sons died of T.B.
I don't know yet where Peter the hubby of Allie came from, or how they wound
up with the name Chappell. Perhaps Joel Younger, who owned 35 slaves in
1860, bought Peter from a Chappell family.
Any help out there?

Hi all!
I've been lurking for a while; it's now time to post.
My wife is descended from Zippie Ella Chappell (1875-1962),
- the daughter of Isaac Newton Chappell (1850-1890) from Putnam Co. IA, m.
Sarah Jane Hamilton
- the son of Jesse Mordekiah Chappell (1819-1898), b. Georgia, m. Bethana
Spurlock
Jesse and Bethana moved to Pope Co. IL, thence to Missouri
- the son of Thomas Chappell (abt.1793-1860) and unknown.
- the son of Jesse Chappell (b. abt1763) of Prince Edward Co., VA and
Martha Baldwin
A cousin in Oklahoma has given me much of this and a lot more info.
Seeking to contact other relatives, learn more about the lineage back to
early colonial days.
