I believe he married a lady called Doris and they lived in Bishops Stortford, Herts and they lived in the house next to the Water Tower. He may have worked for the Water Works. His parents were Ernest Herbert and Susan Emma Chapman nee Manley, and his brothers and sisters names are Florence Susan Maud, Rose Louisa, Elsie, Lily Julia (my nan), Fred and Daisy. I have been told that when there mother died in 1910, the children were all sent to children's homes, for some reason there father never continued to look after them. To date I haven't been able to find any information about their father after the mother's death. Not even a death record for him. I would love to hear from anyone who may have this connection or know anything of the whole Chapman family as this is proving to be the 'brick wall' Lynnette Merrin.
