Posted on: Franklin Co. Ms Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ms/Franklin/10886 Surname: Chapman ------------------------- What sources do you have that verifies this information? I did not have the middle name of Ivan but my family "hear-say" records indicate a Thomas Chapman. And, I have documented this Thomas Chapman of Franklin/Copiah County on all 1850-1920 Census until his death in 1904 & wife in 1926. On 1920 Census his wife Susannah D. Chapman was staying in the William D. McFarland household with one of her granddaughters. I am looking for some verifiable proof of his full name & most importantly his parents...I do know that his Father was from Virginia & his mother was from Mississippi. Do you have any additional information? Where did you get your information from - any real sources or just hear-say?
