| Notes |
- According to undated notes by Vern Hall: "Thomas Chapman [-968 in this ancestry file-ed.] made his will 10 Mar 1569. He was a farmer who named everything from kettles and pots to parcels of land all over the town [of Folkestone]. He did this for our cause, 'I will that Thomas [-969 in this ancestry file-ed.] and John [-967] my sonnes shall have my pte of the barne and place with all appurtenances w'ch I purchased from William Godden and Adryan Godden, sett, lying and being in Cowstreet in Folkestone.' This must have been the beginning of our Chapman family in Folkestone." Now referred to as Kow Street.
CHAPMAN Origin of name: from Saxon ceapan or cypan, to buy or sell; Saxon ceap - a bargain, a price, a trader, a shopman. Flemish- a merchant.
