Faye, I can help you out a little bit. Bennett was an older brother of James FITZPATRICK (1801-1844) whose family later ties into my DANIEL-RICHTER bunch in Madison. I do not have anything on the SHACKELFORDS but I know that Bennett died in Crawford County, GA but I do not have anything on his wife. I would like to know more details on her family and their kids if you have this information. I would also like to know who your BISHOPS are because I have a DANIEL girl that married a BISHOP ABT 1900 that I cannot account for his BISHOP family. I do have pictures of them and know they had a son named Fred because he is in a 1920 picture with one of the FITZPATRICK boys in Madison. <<< Bennett Fitzpatrick (Benjamin, Joseph, William) was born July 19, 1799, and died December 16, 1887 in Crawford County, GA.
