Talk:Samuel Chapin

Date of birth
Older versions of this page gave a birthdate of October 8, 1598 but today or yesterday the article was changed to be a baptism date. How is that handled in the dates following Chapin's name in the lead? WikiParker (talk) 13:22, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

John Adams
A search for "John Adams" and "Samuel Chapin" on Google Books brought up only one mention of direct descent but a number that gave significance to an aunt of Adams' being a descendant. I think it unlikely then that there is a direct descent. For the record here is the book that said Chapin was a progenitor of Adams: The Universalist Register: Containing the Statistics of the Church, with an Almanac for 1875, Universalist Publishing House, Boston, 1875, p.87, http://books.google.com/books?id=trf4cCtHDAAC&pg=RA7-PA87 WikiParker (talk) 14:04, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
