!Isaac C., s. Isaac C. and Lydia (Standley), Aug. 21, 1821. P.R.13.

!Standley, Isaac Chapman, s. Nicholas and Lydia, bp. July 10, 1831.C.R.3.
Was this baptism done as a sign of adoption by his stepfather, Nicholas.
With the birth of Levi in December, Isaac's half-brother, perhaps Lydia
developed health problems and to ensure a home for Isaac, he was adopted
by Nicholas. Lydia eventually died in August of that year. This is only
speculation, no proof, and it appears if the adoption did take place that
Isaac chose his original last name when he came of age.
