I have only one Alpheus Chapman in my database. He was b. 26 Nov 1756, Bolton, Connecticut. s/o Thomas and Mary Chapman. He is not in my line, and this is all I have for him.

Just about all my info comes from Baker's History of Montville and doesn't go far enough and doesn't seem to quite fit. Now I am going to start working sideways - can anyone clue me in on the following people? James Babcock, Alpheus Babcock, Thomas Babcock, and Mary Babcock, Henry Minard, Sophia Minard, Emiline Minard, and Ann Bird were heirs at law of the estate of Alpheus Chapman. He was born about 1750 and was living in 1812. His wife's name was Martha _____, and was one of the witnesses to the last will of Samuel Holmes, August 4, 1774. He had sons Alpheus, who married Elizabeth Allen; Jesse married Hannah Holmes, daughter of Jabez, and his children were Jesse, Mary, married Nehemiah Fargo.
