I wanted to make sure to give Patty credit for her part in providing this information to you. To date, these are the only "known" individuals buried at the cemetery. The information below regarding the specifics of the cemetery is a result of the research done by Patty S. Pulasky [PULASKY1@worldnet.att.net], who is a descendent of the Chapmans. The tombstone readings were compiled by Terri and her daughter Shandra Rick. This cemetery, started about 1843-1845, is located on Taylor Road, Independence Township, Road 710. On the 1875 plat map of Independence Township, the Goodman family tract of land is only one property east of the William Chapman property, and is directly south of the Joseph Chapman tract, so would assume the Goodman-Chapman Cemetery is adjacent to these properties. (The Tallow Light, Volume 11, #4) Additional information provided by Terri Rick. This cemetery is now located on the property of Bernard and Margaret Reynolds (these are my Grandparents). They inherited the property from Margaret's Grandmother, Margaret Lucinda (Bliss) Hendricks, who purchased the property from the Chapman's. Also, it is to be noted that Patty obtained a cemetery listing from the Historical Society which has conflicting dates. The dates I have provided came directly off of the Stones. I have been maintaining a list of the Cemetery for 21 years now.
