This is somewhat consistent with what I suspect and that is that the name Chaffin is a derivation of the old German word "Chaffen" which means "worker". When the German Saxons were doing all their invading, some may have stayed and taken this name.There is a town just a little east of Frankfurt called Achaffensburg!
