He served one term in the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing the city of Racine as a member of the Free Soil Party during the 1850 session.[1][2][3]
Background
Chapman was originally from Becket, Massachusetts.[4]
In Wisconsin
In April 1843, he was appointed by the Governor and Council of Massachusetts as a "Commissioner to Administer Oaths, &c." for use back in the Commonwealth; he was already a resident of Racine.[5]
Chapman was a delegate from Racine at the Chicago River and Harbor Convention of 1847.[6] The convention drew 2,315 delegates from 19 states to advocate for federal support of improvements to inland rivers and harbors. [7]
In November 1847 he was among the officers of the first Masonic Lodge to be organized in Racine County.[8]
Legislative service
In 1849, he was elected to the Assembly from the 1st Racine County district (the Town of Racine), succeeding fellow Free Soiler Marshall Strong. He was not re-elected in 1850, and was succeeded by William L. Utley, yet another Free Soiler.
