Whoever slipped the Irishman named Murphy into my lineage can take him back...I don't like living by his "law". Michael N(icholas) Shuler b 9 Mar 1759, Philadelphia Co, PA d 23 Feb 1862, Elk Creek, Grayson Co, VA m 1) Dortha (?) abt 1782, PA m 2) Charity "Anna" Myers, b abt 1769 either Rowan Co, NC, or Grayson Co, VA d 17 Dec 1856, Comer's Rock, Grayson Co, VA fathered 3 children by Dortha, Sophia, b abt 1783, Rowan Co, NC, d abt Jun 1875, m John Delp, b 1780 Bucks Co, PA,d 1855 Rhoda, b aft 1791, Rowan Co, NC, m Phillip Epilee, 17 Jun 1827, Grayson Co, VA Anna Maria, b 1794, Rowan Co, NC fathered 12 children by Charity btwn 1796 & 1822, names available on request. Michael stated prior to his death that he was named for his father, who was born in Philadelphia Co, PA, 1742, and moved to NC. Obviously, his father couldn't have been 11 years old when he was born, but this is the only Michael Shuler b PA m Sophia Hittel that I've been able to locate who subsequently moved to NC. Michael died in VA 1862 after falling off the front porch (a distance of 2 feet), so his memory was probably the primary fault. I've always considered that his birth date (no documentation found) was probably 1769.
