Thanks! J. Chapman was James Thurston Chapman and R. Chapman was his sister Ruby Chapman. They are the two youngest children of James Chapman and Susan H. Gilpin Chapman. Ruby never had children of her own, but raised her oldest sister's children after the sister died in Christian County, KY (Mollie Chapman married a Beaird, the children kept that spelling). James Thurston Chapman married Lee Ella McCarter and they moved to Christian County, KY and had a number of children and descendants of these Chapman's still populate that area of the state. My great grandfather was DeWitt Edward Chapman, a son of James Thurston Chapman. If anyone is interested in this family's information, please feel free to contact me at mamkmm2@prodigy.net Kathy in FL theshadow <theshadow@glade.net> wrote: Thought you might want to see the list in alphabetical order. I also put males and females together in order to better see all the children of the same name.
