Joan - Thanks for your reply.I did make a big breakthru just last week.The info came through probate records. I now know that we are descended from Turner Chapel, the son of Joseph and Patience.The Washington vital records mention Zeruah as the widow of James, but she was actually the widow of Turner who died in 1818. Their children were Elizabeth, Isaac, Eli, and Anson. Her second marriage was to Reuben Bolls. That puts me back to 1685 and William Chapel (Chappel). Are there any records linking William to George Chappel who arrived in 1634?
