His mother was Eunice Colton of Longmeadow. He was born July 22, 1763. At the age of fifteen years he served for six months as a fifer in a militia company of the Revolution. He prepared for college under the instruction of Dr. Backus of Somers, Connecticut, entered 8 CHAPIN FAMILY Yale College in 1784 and was graduated with honor in due season. After spending two years as a highly successful teacher in Hartford and there decided to become a gospel minister, studied theology with Dr. Perkins of... West Hartford for six months, and was there licensed to preach by the Hart- ford North Association. Meanwhile, in September 1791, he had been elected tutor at Yale College, and entered on that office that autumn. Dr. Stiles was then president of the col- lege, and numerous entries in his diary mention Tutor Chapin, and show a high appreciation both of his tutorial work and of his ability and success as a preacher. In 1794 he resigned his office at Yale, accepted a call of the church in Stepney Parish of Wethersfield, now Rocky Hill, and was ordained as pastor of that church composed of twenty-seven members, April 30, 1794, with an annual salary of $333, which contin- ued the same to the end of his long pastorate.
