Updated April 6, 2023. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):(1) Chipman, Bert Lee. The Chipman Family, a Genealogy of the Chipmans in America, 1631-1920. Winston-Salem, North Carolina, United States, B. L. Chipman, 1920. Pages 13-14.
"John CHIPMAN was born, probably at Bryans-Piddle, near Dorchester, England, about 1614; died April 7, 1708. Always brotherless and early left fatherless, he sailed from Barnstable, Devon County, England, in May, 1631, in the ship Friendship, arriving in Boston, July 14, 1631. John CHIPMAN was the first and only one of the name to seek a home in America, and up to 1850 there was no CHIPMAN in this country who was not descended from him... John CHIPMAN was successive years a selectman, then in Plymouth Colony invested with the authority of a magistrate, and was often a 'Deputy to Court;' and he with three assistants was designated to frequent the early Quaker meetings and 'endeavor to reduce them from the errors of their wayes.' He became on June 30, 1653, as his wife had become Aug. 7, 1650, a member of the church at Barnstable, Mass... In 1646 John CHIPMAN married Hope, second daughter of John and Elizabeth (TILLIE) HOWLAND, born in Plymouth Mass., 1629; died 1683... In 1684 he married Ruth, youngest daughter of William SARGENT... His children were all by his first marriage and except a son and daughter who died in infancy, all survived him as follows... Samuel... John... Elizabeth... Hope, m. 1st, Jno HUCKINS; 2nd, Jonathan COBB... Lydia... Hannah... Ruth... Bethia... Mercy... Desire..."

"Few families are more widely disseminate than this. Elder CHIPMAN had eleven children and eighty-two grand-children, nearly all of whom married and had families." "CHIPMAN is an ancient name and occurs as early as A.D. 1070, on the Doomsday Survey Book. Originally the name was written De Chippenham, or by the armorial bearings Chippenham." "Probably the ancestor of all of the name CHIPMAN in the United States."
