    Capt. Samuel Chapman, eldest son of Robert Chapman, Jr., married Margaret Griswold, of Norwich, supposed to be the daughter of Capt. Samuel Griswold, and grand-daughter of Lieut. Francis Griswold, December 6, 1693. By her he had ten children. She died December 21, 1750.

    Mr. Chapman was a prominent man in Say-Brook in civil and military affairs. He resided in what is now the town of West-Brook, and, with his wife Margaret, was of the first fourteen persons who were organized into a church at that place, June 29, 1726. Four of his descendants have been successively deacons of that church.

    The date of Mr. Samuel Chapman's decease is not known.
