James Shufflebarger, son of Abraham and Eleanor Fulkerson Shufflebarger, was born 1832 and died 1897 and is buried in the S.Barger Cem. in the Raum, Il area. He could not have been the James who married Mary Melissa Brush.

Thank you, Linda! I appreciate this. Would you have any idea at all who James W. Shufflebarger might be that was married to Mary Melissa Brush and was referred to in her obituary? (he died in Dec., 1947) The only other James S.Barger I have, is the son of Richard S.Barger and Mary Towns...and this James is on record as 'never married'.

Has anyone looked for an obituary for this James S.Barger? If there are local papers on file for Dec. 1947, this should be easy to locate. What about a death certificate? Someone who died in 1947 in IL should have a death cert on file, and this would likely clear up who he was. Just a couple suggestions to try to solve this little puzzle. Good luck!
