Mark,
There is no indication in my notes that your George Henry Chapman has any direct connection with my immediate Chapman line. Benjamin and Rachel left Canada in 1852 for Wisconsin. They had a son, George Adair Chapman, my great grandfather, but he married in Minnesota to a Grace Tyndall.
I will check over my information from County Wicklow, Ireland, where my line is from to see if there is any mention of a George Henry Chapman. Clearly the names fit into those found in my family, but that is not uncommon as you probably know these names seem to repeat and repeat.
My Benjamin had a brother, Henry, who had sons Henry and Wiliam George, but again they came almost directly from Ireland to Minnesota about 1870, although they may have entered the U.S. from Canada after a brief stay.
