I am Anna Louise Rowlands Frye. My grandmother was a Chapman. There were Chapmans in Dexter City, Ohio just North of Marietta. Relatives, over the years have told me I am the great, great, great niece of Johnny Appleseed. Nothing I have ever read about Johnny even mentions Dexter City but there is a beautifull monument of him at that location. I was born in Dexter City.

While it is physically possible that Abraham Lincoln could have met John Chapman (AKA "Johnny Appleseed") [note the corrected spelling of "Johnny"], since they were both living between the years 1809 (Lincoln's birth when Chapman was 35 years old) and 1845 (Chapman's death, 2 years before Lincoln took office in the House of Representatives and 16 years before he took office as President), there is no known documentation or proof that the two men met. It is more likely that Chapman's father might have met George Washington, since the senior Chapman served as an Officer attached to General Washington's forces in New York City, but there is also no documentation or proof that they ever met.
