Chapman Family

Joseph Chapman, a Quaker immigrant from England and one of the earliest purchasers of land from William Penn. He founded Wrightstown Township about 1690. A square mile in the center, in the present Penns Park, was reserved for parkland. However, in 1719, this was divided among the surrounding property owners.

Abraham and Joseph Chapman, twins, were the only children born to John and Jane Chapman in Bucks county. They were born at Wrightstown, December 12, 1685. Presumably, the streets in the subdivision were named for Jane and her son, Joseph.
