Chapman was an eminent master bricklayer and "''accounted one of the most dextrous cricket players in England''". There are no earlier references to Edmund Chapman who must have been active c.1715 to c.1740, presumably playing for Chertsey Cricket Club, or perhaps Croydon Cricket Club, and for Surrey as a county.〔H T Waghorn, ''The Dawn of Cricket'', Electric Press, 1906〕 == Matches ==
