Hi found this on google George William Chapman was born in Bootle on 4 February 1921. After the death of his mother when he was five years old, he was brought up by his grandparents, during the time of the Great Depression. After leaving school at the age of fourteen, employment was scarce although he managed to secure a number of different occupations, e.g. garage attendant, professional boxer and docker, before joining the Irish Guards. He was then transferred to the Royal Air Force and also served in the Royal Navy. George recalls that by about this time: 'Apart from a keen interest in animals and a natural ability to nurse them back to health, there were no signs in the first twenty-five years of my life that I would become a healer'.(1) After marrying Margaret in 1944, Vivian, their daughter was born a year later. However, only a short time after her birth, George and Margaret were told that she would not survive, and only four weeks later she died. At this point, George was confronted with the questions faced by those in a similar position, e.g. how such a thing could happen. Nonetheless, on reflection, he views this as a turning point in his life: 'For the first time I began to think seriously about the possibility of an after-life...I asked as many people as I could. Clergymen, to my dismay, were of little help apart from warning me not to dabble with the supernormal'.(2) Try google and you will find out more. Betty |

Yes Betty thanks. I found a site called 'The Mediumship of George Chapman' which explains a bit about his life (well quite a lot but I've not got that far yet! lol) There's also one called chapter 2 underneath that one. And I also found Michael Chapmans healing site (his son) Loads to read now, it will take me ages! Thanks again. xx |

For some reason the name of Michael Chapman in this line of 'work' rings a bell with me. If I recall why, I will contact you. How interesting to find a relative like this. |
