In 1995, while looking up some genealogy at the Nassau Free
Library in Nassau, Rensselaer County, NY; I came across a hand
written descendent tree for Chapman in the Stephentown, NY area.
I put the information in my "to do" file as this line
of Chapmans were not from my William Chapman of New London, CT
branch. I had intended to follow up on this data at a later date.
Well, as of December 19, 2001, I have finally "completed"
my initial research on these local Chapmans. It turns out that
this line is descendent from the Robert Chapman of Say-brook,
CT line of Chapmans. Using the FW Chapman book (The Chapman
Family or the Descendents of Robert Chapman one of the First Settlers
of Say-Brook, Conn with Genealogical Notes of William Chapman,
who settled in New London, Conn.; Edward Chapman, who settled
at Windsor, Conn.; John Chapman, of Stonington, Conn.; and Rev.
Benjamin Chapman, of Southington, Conn.), and information
found on the internet, I have been able to trace a portion of
this line.
The data I have located is only for the one brance of the Robert
Chapman Jr. line. Much more information on this entire line can
be found in the FW Chapman book.
Now, I have not verified any of the data here. So, do not
take the information as gospel! Just use this as a starting point.
I have discovered a number of error, inconsistencies in the FW
Chapman data and other data found on the internet.
