why not post some details of your queries and see if anyone can help answer them, or check what records might be available ?

just 31 people with the surname Chapman in Co. Wicklow on the 1901 census - most seem to be close to Delgany, which is just inland from Greystones.

   See : Chapman, Co. Wicklow - 1901

about 40 entries for Chapman on Griffith valuation - dated 1854 for most of Wicklow.

  See : Chapman, Co. Wicklow - 1854

 :)  Thanks for the tips, Shane and Allan!  I am still learning how to use RootsChat.com and it seems like a great site to connect and share information.  It's a bit overwhelming but also exciting at the same time.  Have a good day! Jason

dont know what sort of Irish research you've already done - but to start you off here are the two Introduction topics :

   Introduction to Irish Records
   My Ancestor came from Ireland - where do I start?

Hi .

If you have a look down the list here in the Wicklow section under "John Parker of Wicklow Town" you will see where I contributed Chapman information for Newey who is also interested in the Chapman name.

John
Webster , Parker and Smith in Wicklow. Power , Lewis and Livingstone in Carlow and Wexford. Forde in Monaghan . Orr in Cavan.
