Y...Should have read the blog post more thoroughly. Yes, it appears that Dr. Chapman married Deborah Briggs Cushing Dunn, a daughter of G. B. Dunn (George Bancroft Dunn), one of the proprietors mentioned on the card. Her mother, Lucinda Briggs Cushing, was born at Winterport, Maine, next to Newburg where Dr. Chapman was born, so there might have been a family or friend relationship between the families that allowed the couple to meet?? According to the Directory of Deceased American Physicians, Dr. Chapman was an allopath, who received his education at Hampden Academy, New York University Medical College and Univ of the City of New York. Here's a biography of him: http://books.google.com/books?id=rH95AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA205&lpg=PA205&dq=%22Henry+M.+Chapman%22+Maine&source=bl&ots=298wYJZpRi&sig=z47PhdY5pBRYZ65HHz4qgaRmvSc&hl=en&sa=X&ei=DFQaUdK8HYXh0gHJ54HQBg&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22Henry%20M.%20Chapman%22%20Maine&f=false<br />Hope this helps!Pam Beveridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06272409581983333836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470217109659177851.post-47116975261010348692013-02-12T06:51:55.892-08:002013-02-12T06:51:55.892-08:00Glad that I could help!

Here's a bit from a book on google: http://books.google.com/books?id=rH95AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA205&lpg=PA205&dq=%22Henry+M.+Chapman%22+Maine&source=bl&ots=298wYJZpRi&sig=z47PhdY5pBRYZ65HHz4qgaRmvSc&hl=en&sa=X&ei=DFQaUdK8HYXh0gHJ54HQBg&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22Henry%20M.%20Chapman%22%20Maine&f=false<br />Interestingly, I note that Dr. Henry M. Chapman married Deborah C. DUNN - hmmm! Their marriage record shows the Dr. to be living at Ashland, and the bride at Houlton. This was in 1904, after your father was born. I may have some time today to do some followup on Dr. Chapman and perhaps learn how he happened to be practicing at Ashland.<br />Pam Beveridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06272409581983333836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470217109659177851.post-76981589748606670952013-02-12T06:26:02.882-08:002013-02-12T06:26:02.882-08:00Thank You for this posting Pam.

It listed my father Robert Keene, his parents John W(Willis) Keene, Mother Martha Page,Physician H. M. Chapman and W. P. Bridgham Clerk. Your article listed the Dr. H. M. Chapman<br />with a bit of additional info.That is all I have found on the Dr. to date.<br />Ernest Keene erk350@fairpoint.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
