WELCOME TO CHAPMAN CHATTER

Comments from your editors

Ch ap man is the fourth surnalE on Mhich Me have undertaken extensive data colle'tion and inlor.,tion e,change .,th people such as you allover the nation. It represents our third ne.sletter endeavor. We are learning early In our program that the Chap.ans drastIcally outnu.ber the Newk irks Al fords and Newsoms on .hich .e are also .orking.

HavIng established t.o ,ay co••unicat,on, .,th over 150 01 you, it beca.e apparent that there .as a very defirllte need for 3 IIlJans of COlIll.lnlCatlQn beheen all of you Mho are interested in Ch apman. We expect you to conslder this your publIcation. ~e need you to tell us "hat you like and Mhat you don l t like. We need e,en .ore lor you to 'end u, lnlor.ation that you .ant to ,hare .ith others .ho have that [Ol~on Chapllan Interest.

There ~re a feM thjngs that Me need to get on record in thIS first issue. First, Me are not gene31ogists. We became lnterested in our ancestors Iud too late in life, and began just last year. Second, Me are not journalists Dr publ1shers. Until we hecate involved Mith our falily neMsletters, the closest experience Me had Mas Morking on the hIgh 5~hool paper over forty years ago. Third, Me are not Infallible. So.e 'Ight even say .e are error prone. We .ill do our ut.ost to keep errors In the neMsletters to a 11nilul. Dealing Mlth such a volule of proper nales and dates, lakes proof-reading very dilli,ult. We have no .ay 01 authenticating the inlor.atlon ,ent by you and your asso,iates. II you indicate that so.ething is not proven or is q'Jestlonable, .e .ill try to qualily it in publication .ith G??. If you find that we. or our contributors, have lade an error, please let us knoM so that Me can publish a correction in a later issue. Fourth,.e are not independently .ealthy nor are .e .orking as part 01 a lunded loundatlon. When.e started our ne..letters last year, they .ere short and our reade" 'ere Ie., therelore they .ere 'irculated Iree. The page nu.be" and the readers increased, and the costs increased drastically. We could not afford to continue on our retlre.ent inco.e, thus the subscriptlon charge. Fifth,.e need all the Chap.an inlor.ation you can send us. We .ould ask that il you send inlor.ation that i' copyright prote,ted that you tell us so that the copyright .ill not be violated. The ne..letters are not copyrighted and you .ay use the .aterial or oake copies. We .ould appreciate credit .here appropriate. If others .i,h to have ,opies, .e can provide originals lor just about your costs in .aking ,opies. We .ill try to .aintain a lile 01 back-issue, lor those occasions .hen you or others .ant an e, tra copy.

We need a na.e lor all 01 you colle,tively. lou .ill see on pages 10 to 15 that .ost 01 you are not Chap.ans per se. It .ould not be lair to call you Chap.an and it gets to be a proble. calling you contacts or correspondents. We have chosen the na.e Chapp i e as a na'e lor those .ho are involved .ith us in this effort. If you have a better na.e that is short, descriptive, and all enco.passing .e .ould like to hear fro. you.

The ne.,letter .ill contain inlor.ation Iro. and about .any Chappies Mho are not subscriber•• Subscribers .ill be given priority and prelerence in ne.sletter coverage. Our percentage 01 subscribers vs contacts is .uch les' .ith Chap.an than .ith our other lines. Unless.e have a signilicant in,rease in this first year, it is possible that .e .ill not try to continue into the second year. If you kno. 01 others .ho .ight be interested, and il you think the publication is .orth.hile, please tell th.. about us. We are e,tending the UO introductory offer until our advertise.ent is published in TNf 6EHEALO.leAL HHPfR.

The Chap.an E"hange on pages 4 to 7 .,11 run lour pages or .ore until .e can catch up .ith the backlog that .as a,cu.ulated before.e started publi,ation. As you read the inquiries on the.e pages, don't overlook our ,o••ents at the top 01 page 4.

The lineage table on pages 10 to 15 is a one-ti.e leature. It per.its you to see the direct Chap.an ancestry 01 al.ost all 01 the current Chappies. As ne. Chappies are added to our nu.ber .e .ill give their lineage in the e>change. The lor.at 01 the lineage table beginning on page 10 is sell-e,planatory, but if you have trouble, find your na.e or that 01 your spouse in the left colu.n. Notice the headings a,ro.s the top identilying the ancestral relationship. On your line .ill be sho.n the lirst na.e 01 your Chap.an an,estor and belo. their na.e, the year and place 01 birth, il kno.n. Once you understand your line, the others are si.ilar.

At hast ho Chap.an fa.i Iy lines .i II be featured in each i..ue. See pages 8 • 9 and 16 • 17. Because of the fa.ily size, and the Ii.ited space available, these .ill be run in series and continued over several or .any issues, The charts on the left page and the fa.ily group records or genealogies on the right page .ill usually not cover the sa.e seg.ents of the fa.ily in the sa.e issue, The coverage in the charts on the left are governed by techincal charting considerations, The fa.ily group records .ill run in sequence by generation, Huch of the infor.ation in these pages co.es fro. very old records lo.er 100 years old in these particular cases), If you have correcting or supple.entary infor.ation .e .ould appreciate your sending it in so that it can be shared .ith others,

In addition to infor.ation about our Chapoan ancestors, .e .ould like to include interesting current Chapoan infor.ation. One such ite••ould deal .ith Chapoan fa.ily reunions. Me .ould like to print announce.ents in advance of the reunion, and then .ith the help of one or .ore of the participants, publish reports of the reunions. Me know about t.o Chap.an reunions that .ere held recently. The descendants of Wi 11 i am W. Chapman .et June 25 at Ephesus Pri.itive Church in Worth County, GA, There .as another reunion Julv 24th at Three Forks Baptist Church in Alexander (previously Wilkes) County. North Carolina. ThIS group is probably identified as the dlScendants of John Chapman of that county. ~on't you tell us about your current Chap.an events so.e can pa.. the. on to others.

You .ay e,pect so.e delayed reaction on any of your co••ents in the ne.sletter. Copies are .ade available to the Library of Congress, other libraries, and genealogical socities. As these copies go into their reference collection. they .ay be read years in the future by so.eone .ho .ill contact you. If you have a library or society to .hich you .ould reco••end .e send co.pli.entary copies, give us their na.e and address, and tell us .hy you think .e should .ake such a contribution.

Me .ill nor.ally try to .ail the ne.sletter to subscribers during the first .eek of February, Hay, August and Nove.ber. There .ill be occasions .here events beyond our control cause so.e delay, but you can expect they .ill al.ays be .ailed so.eti.e during the .onth .entioned.

Give particular attention to the Chap.an inventory described on page 24. This progra. which .ill cul.inate in a co.puter fIle (and printouts) of every Chap.an in the 1850 census is likely to be one of the oost useful tools you and future generation Chap.an researchers have available. It .ill succeed only to the extent that you help us. Motice that .e have data on only 15 of the possible 40 states invol.ed and already have 1796 Chap.an fa.ilies identified. If.e can expect the Chap.an per state ratio to continue .e can project the total IB50 fa.ilies to be about 4777. Me are probably looking at so.ething over 30,000 Chap.ans .ho .ere living in IB50. If.e live long enough, and get enough of your help, .e .ill eventually have the. all on our consolidated record.

Th. first version of that list is on the facing page. Tho various colulns are probably s.lf o,planatory. Mh.r. tho NO"s ar. sho.n in tho n•• t to last coluon .0 nood your help .lth a copy of the Chaplan portion frol an inde' of that state. We need all tho inforlation sho.n ,n the inde' such as nal., county, to.nship, and pag. nuober.
