I am looking for a John or Jack Chapman, Born around the Snilesworth / Osmotherley / Hawnby area of North Yorkshire. His parents certainly came form that area.Names of the previous generations are William, John , Gearge, Thomas, Dinah , Mary and others. This John or Jack went out to the USA or Canada in the early 1900s He was a recognisance pilot and Bomber pilot and often visited The Chapman families of the Whitby area of North Yorkshire, He also used to stay at a farm at Yearby near Guisborough in Cleveland, North Yorks. This was probaly after the first world war. He was known of by the family until the 1940s but those who remember him are now dead. He may well have gone out just prior or just after the Titanic disaster of 1912 as another member of the Chapmna family was booked on the Titanic to go out to the same place. Can any one help? Regards Derick |
