Tour Scotland Video Anne Chapman Window Meadowside St Paul's Church Dundee

Tour Scotland travel video of the Anne Chapman stained glass window in Meadowside St Paul's Church, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Dundee. Presented by John Earl Robertson in memory of his wife Anne Chapman. John Earl Robertson was a prominent silk merchant. The surname Chapman was first found in Cambridgeshire, England. In Scotland, the earliest ocurrence of the name seems to be in 1296 when a pardon was granted to a man for causing the death of Ralph Chepman in Dundee." A few years later, William Chapman was provost of Aberdeen in 1327 and is probably the Willelmus dictus Chapman who appears on an inquisition in the same town in 1333. Hugh called Chepman held a land in fee in the town of Roxburgh in 1338 and King David II granted a charter of the lands of Rotherstoun near Dee to Duncan Chapman.
