William Thomas Chapman
I'm searching for information on the ancestors of William Thomas Chapman who was married to Portia (or Pastiam) Lifsey on 24 Oct 1854 in Pike County, GA. His parents were likely Abner (or Alverna) Chapman, b.1800 d.1864-1870, and Elizabeth Barrett, b.1807 d.1880, who were married on 9 Feb 1825 in Pike County, GA. Abner's parents may have been Abner Chapman, c.1757-c.1802-1863, and Ann Goodloe, b.1774 d.1824.

Williard E. Chapman
I'm Moos Raaijmakers a WO1 in the Dutch army engineer corps. As a hobby I create and maintain memorials on findagrave.com. One of them is the memorial for pfc Willard E Chapman 35625721. I manage 22 of the 25 memorials for the driver and passengers of the Duke Amphibian truck that went down on Lake Garda Italy on April 30th 1945. For this memorial I'm trying to locate pictures of the soldiers to place them there. So the question is, do you have a photograph of Willard Chapman and if so may I placed it on his memorial.
