I am going to post this to the list, I had sent this information to Barbara. Barbara's Content Andrews m. Joseph Chapman. One of their children was Roswell Russell Chapman. The name Roswell was particularly interesting. At the same time that these Andrews were in Chenango Co., so was a Theophilus Andrews. He had a son Roswell Andrews. Rosewell had sons Ransom Rathbone, and Harlow Roswell. And then if you go to Samuel from my previous email (Samuel the son of John) he had a Hiram Ransom. I think all of these Andrews have a connection. Since I cannot find that they are brothers, they could be cousins, nephews, uncles. And oh yes, then there is Lucy. You find Lucy throughout the Andrews families. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have been trying to solve these Andrews mysteries for years.
