Patience Chapman

[janna59]

I am trying to find out what i can about my grandmother, she was born about 1901 not sure where she was born but lived all over kent

[groom]

Was Chapman her maiden name?

There is a baptism of a Patience Chapman:    
Baptism Date   05 Feb 1905
Baptism Place   St. Mary's, Ash, Surrey, England
Father   Joseph Chapman
Mother   Kate Chapman

Who did your grandmother marry?

Do you have a copy of her marriage cert showing her fathers name?

[CaroleW]

Did she marry William Yelding in 1939?

No she didn't.  Death reg for Patience Yelding shows birth 1918

[CaroleW]

A Patience Chapman b 9.10.1901 died 1976 in Kent - is that her?

If so - as Groom has asked - was Chapman her married name or her maiden name?

Hi and welcome to RootsChat....There is a tree on Ancestry for a Patience Chapman matching the dates that Carole gives who had Six children all with the surname Chapman.

In which case Carole needs to start looking for a Patience Something marrying an Anything Chapman. If she looks up the children's' names on the GRO indexes she might get lucky and find out Patience's maiden name.

[groom]

There is a father given on that tree and his name isn't Chapman it's Henry Waller, but as Carol said all the children are Chapman.

One of the children (died 2008)

Births Jun 1928 
Chapman    Edward R    Chapman   
W.Ashford    2a   1551

As she was born as Patience Chapman and all her children were registered under surname Chapman it would be a waste of time looking for a marriage between Patience Chapman and a male Chapman if the father of the children was Henry Waller
