Abstract:
This exploration of the prominent family spotlighted Samuel Chapman, whose daughter Caroline contributed to the construction of the Attmore-Oliver House. An examination of his life included positions such as clerk of the County’s Superior Court, secretary of New Bern Academy’s board of trustees, and senior warden of St. John’s Lodge, number 2. Chapman’s life was also reflected in his will, in which he also left his mother, wife Catherine, and son Henry his worldly goods. As for his slave woman Juliet’s son, possibly being Chapman’s son would explain Nathan’s emancipation and share of the family fortune.
