Hi Kelley...I found a pension for Capt. Charles W. Chapman...granted to his mother, Maria Chapman. I can't quite read the date but it looks like 31 Jan. or June 1865...application # 81259, certificate # 51280...Co. K, 63 PA Inf. Since his pension went to his mother, I assume he was unmarried. I would suggest you send for the pension which should give more information...give them both numbers. According to a regimental "history", he & Quartermaster Lysle were killed in a skirmish on the picket line near Ft. Lyon (probably in VA), the "first men to fall in action". You may be able to find more about Ft. Lyon on the internet. Enlistments for the 63 rd PA Inf. were men from Allegheny, Beaver, Clarion, Venango & Mercer Cos., PA. In the 1850 Allegheny Co. census (Pittsburgh, ward 3) is: William Chapman, 55, pot maker in glass house(?) Maria Chapman, 50 James Chapman, 23, clerk Joseph Chapman, 18 (can't read occupation) William Chapman, 22 " " " Charles W. Chapman, 12 Nancy Armstrong, 25 1860 Pgh, ward 3: William Chapman, 68, tobaccoist, b Ireland Maria, 60 Nancy Armstrong, 40 Ann Chapman, 12 Charles W. is not with thw family & I don't find him anywhere in that census EXCEPT 1860 Clarion Co., PA - East Mauch Chunk: Joseph H. Chapman, 57, carpenter Martha Chapman, 46 Charles W. Chapman, 22, engineer (he is the right age to be your man but his mother's name is wrong) Willard J. Chapman, 14 James Chapman, 13 Hope this helps. Jane
