Gerald Shelton Chapman

My cousin and I are trying to fill our family tree. We do not know much about the Chapman side, except for what we have been told over the years.
My grandfather's name was Gerald Shelton Chapman and he married Gwendolyn Imagene Short in 1946, he was 20 yrs old and she was 16.
My grandfather's side is hard for us to figure out for there are so many Chapmans.
