I don't have a male Chapman who married a Richards, so far as I can tell. It is very interesting that this family moved to Union Co., however. Do you know approximately when they arrived in Union Co.? I assume since you did not state one that you do not have a home county in Virginia for this family. My Chapman line appears to come from Frederick/Orange Co., VA, if that helps. Unfortunately, there are many Chapman lines in Virginia, as I am sure you have found out! Sorry I can't be of more assistance. I'll let you know if I turn up something on a Richards connection.
