Trying to find Chapman

I am trying to find ancestors to Christopher Chapman who was b. 1854c. Possible in Ramsey Huntingdonshire. The census give various places of birth, one being Ramsey Isle of Wight. As there is no such place on the Isle of Wight I have tried to research other avenues and Ramsey Huntingdon does seem the nearest possibility as a Christopher Chapman was born there around that time. He shows on the 1991 census in Horncastle Lincolnshire but was not there on the 1881 census which suggests he moved there after the 1881 census was taken. His occupation was French Polisher. He died in Horncastle in 1903, the informant being Francis Corrigan. Any clues to his wherabouts before coming to Horncastle would be appreciated. |
