Looking for information for ancestors of Daniel Chapman b. abt 1819, d. 19 Nov 1875. Daniel married Cornelia Swarts (b. abt 1824,d. 1896) on 19 Nov 1839. They lived in Winchester, Frederick Co., VA. But I believe that they may have been from Gainesboro(Pughtown) area.

The IGI has Daniel's father as Thomas William Chapman born Gainesboro. He supposedly married a Jemima Lyzon Schroyer. However the only record I have found is of Thomas Chapman marrying a Sarah Royer about 1810.

Daniel's children were:
Jemima L., Mary C., George W., John B., Fannie B., James M, Scott Lewis, Jacob M., Virginia, Franklin, and Hunter Boyd.

George and John were in the 23rd Virginia Cavalry in the Civil War. Fannie B. married Charles Warren. Mary C. married John H. Lupton. James M. moved to Baltimore and became a train conductor. Scott Lewis was a station master in Winchester, VA. Hunter Boyd lived in Woodstock VA, he owned Shenandoah Caverns in New Market, VA until 1948.

Does any of this ring a bell?
