Jackson Carr Chapman died Sunday, Nov. 4, in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He was 92 years old.

Jackson was born Feb. 24, 1920, in Newport, Rhode Island, to Edwin E. D. Chapman and Annie Louise Jackson, and was raised in Cos Cob, Connecticut. A graduate of the Oakland Military Academy in New Jersey, he was a U.S. Army Air Corps veteran of World War II and retired from the U.S. Department of the Navy.

Jackson had interests in music, photography, and in ships and ship-building. A longtime resident of Annandale, Jackson and his late wife, Mary Alice Archibald (1986), raised champion show beagles. They retired to Sandy Cove in Digby County, Nova Scotia, and eventually Jackson settled in The Berkeley, Halifax.

Dietrich, of Ridgefield; grandnieces Amy Dietrich (Danny) Hernandez, of Rolling Meadows, Illinois, and Emily (Keith) Totaro, of New Milford; and grandnephew Jackson Dietrich, of New Milford; five great-grandnephews, and one great-grandniece.
