Hi
I dont seem to be able to reply to personal messages....I am trying to find who my Grandfather's father was .I know he was a Chapman from Seaton Ross and not married to my Grandad's mother ,she was the housekeeper. My grandad was born in roughly 1915 before his father married.
I have so little to go on other than the name Chapman and no first name.
I will have to make the time to go to Seaton Ross and look in the Parish records.

Hi My greatgrandmother was called Florence Brighton/nee Pickering, had my grandad when working as a housekeeper but then went on to marry Mr Brighton...as being illigitimate was shameful in those days my we never talked about Grandads father,but notice there was a Percival Chapman on the names you give ,but the dates dont add up to him being..my grandad's dad and funnily enough my Grandad was called Percy Pickering and he was born in Seaton Ross around 1915 and died around 20 years ago.

Now that is strange ..maybe as it was a small village many families married from the village...could Ann have been Florence's relation..I just wish I could work out who was Grandad Percy's father.Do you know if it is possible to view church records ..or do you need to make and appointment.?
thankyou for all you help its very interesting

All very confusing this family hitory lark. Don't know about church registers, believe you would have to have appointment sfrom somewhere, unfortunately I have never been able to get there, as following other family trails in the NE and Wales.
I have book of Mon Inscriptions for Everingham, Seaton Ross & Harswell. The only mention of Brightons is the two from WW1 in the church. There are no other family members buried there although there is a George Frederick Brieghton F.R.A. b 1895,died on 21/06/1922 aged 27 ,this is in Everingham church yard.
There is no mention of Pickering family anywhere......
Have also found out that Pocklington, as nearest village which held registers of births,marriages, deaths. There are also Chapmans here in abunance. You may learn more from here thro' Mormon site on BMD'S, who knows.
Will try and find out more........................regards, Colin

wow thanks so much for all your help..I think Grandma Florence's Mr Brigton may have come from away ....but not sure really ..but I do have Pickering relatives in Pockington and Warter(Next village).
I think I need to ask my aunt abit more although its difficult as I dont think she understands why I am interested.
Anyway thankyou again

I have many Yorkshire Chapmans - happy to share what I have 
Stab in the dark here. Do you have a James Chapman born in Leeds [rough guess would be about 1770] who later went to Wicklow. I have no other information on this man.
