Does any one know if this man is related to Soloman D Chapman b in Feb 1 1840. He might have been born in Anderson Sc area but I know he married ca 1865 and he and wife Mary Ann Phillips b Apr 26 1846 (daughter of William Smith Phillips and Elizabeth Jane Lee) moved on to Miss and then on to TX. Thanks, Quinta July, 1929. Article from the 'Confederate Veteran' magazine. MARK D. CHAPMAN was born at Spartanburg, S.C., on March 23, 1845 and died January 7, 1929, in his 84th year. Joining the Confederate army in 1862, when 17 years of age, he served in Company F, 1st South Carolina Artillery, stationed at Fort Sumter, near Charleston, S.C. He joined Gen. Joseph E. Johnston's forces in 1865 and served on scout duty at Columbia. The army was moved from here just before Sherman burned the city. While on picket duty at Bentonville, N.C., he and his companions were captured by Sherman's army and was taken to Mare's Island, N.Y., by boat and held there as a prisoner for 6 months. While there the prisoners underwent many hardships, the worst being hunger. He was returned by boat to Charleston, where he received his discharge from the army with which he had served to the bitter end. ----- Free Post- nancie --- Nancie O'Sullivan --- drayton5@earthlink.net --- EarthLink: It's your Internet. ______________________________
