CHAPPLES of Devon

[windeatt]

Is there any connection between any of these Devon CHAPPLEs and the Samuel CHAPPELL who founded the famous Bond Street music shop in 1811? 

There were at least two other piano-makers who set themselves up in London in the first half of the nineteenth century but who had started life as carpenters in Devon.  And so, I just wondered, if he set the trend.

Hi

I must admit that I have not not come across Butler or Phillips. Which date are we talking about?

I do know that my great grandfather Herbert Philip Chapple B:1892, was one of 7 children, who were, Mary, Susan Ethel, Margeretta Jane,  John & George (Twins) and Emily. Their parents were George Chapple b 1824, married Susanna Grant.

I cannot seem to get back beyond George, but am off to the Devon records office tomorrow so may have some more information. Perhaps George's brothers and sisters are the connection.

Hi

My Grandmother was born in 1896 so I am assuming that Lizzie Chapple was around the same age give or take a few years.

Will have a look through the info that I have on the Butlers and Phillips and see if any of the names you mentioned tie in.

Cheers

Anne

I am looking for information about the family of Thomas Chapple, born 5 January 1774, Bishops Nympton, Devon., married to Mary (?)  Their daughter, Mary Chapple, born 28 April 1797 at Bishops Nympton married William Hill ( born Ashreigney)

I believe Thomas Chapple's parents may have been John Chapple and Elizabeth(?) both of Bishops Nympton

Any information about this family would be appreciated!

Bishops Nympton has a host of Chapple's, none of the recent queries are mine as far as I know.

Hi All,

If you come across any CHAPPLE lot that were connected to CHAPPLE up in Baltonsborough in Somerset in 19th Century, I have chapter and verse on part of that line that came to NSW Australia.  (George Chapple arrived ex Orwell in Jan 1855, son of John Chapple and Ann Dennis).  Cheers, MA, in NSW Australia
