A native son of California who is steadily forging ahead in his
profession is Dr. Herbert S. Chapman, a member of the surgical staff of the
Stockton Emergency Hospital, whose training and experience fitted him for
general practice. He was born in Clayton, Contra Costa County, Cal., on April 7,
1892, a son of Charles E., also a native of Contra Costa County. Grandfather
George Oliver Chapman was a native of Kentucky who came to California in 1843,
while the great-grandmother, Mrs. Tarwater, residing in Contra Costa County at
the age of one hundred years, came to California in 1839.
Herbert S. Chapman attended the Contra Costa public schools and
graduated from the Concord high school. Entering the Stanford University he was
graduated with the class of '14 with an A. B. degree; and three years later, in
1917, received his M. D. degree. While in the university he was instructor in
medicine and physiology. After a post-graduate course in the Rockefeller
Institute, and a special course in the Carrel-Dakin College on sterilization of
wounds, he entered the Phipps Institute in Philadelphia. Later he received a
commission as lieutenant in the U. S. Navy and saw active service overseas
during the World War, spending two years with the mine-laying division in the
North Sea; for fourteen months he was attached to the Base Hospital No. 2, a
Stanford University unit, located at Strathpeffer, Scotland. Upon his return to
the United States, he took a post�graduate course in surgery at the New York
Post Graduate Hospital; then returning to California, he spent two months in the
clinics at Stanford studying skin diseases, thus extending and widening his
experience and knowledge. Returning to Stockton, he opened offices in the
Yosemite Building where he is engaged in a steadily growing practice.
Dr. Chapman's marriage occurred on July 24, 1920, and united him with
Miss Luella Sibbard, a native of Santa Rosa, Cal., and they are the parents of
one son, Duff Gordon. He is a member of Karl Ross Post of the American Legion, a
member of the Morning Star Lodge of Masons, the Knights of Pythias and the
Kiwanis Club of Stockton, being a member of the board of trustees of the latter
organization.
