I have death cert. info that her father was John Shuffler and it listed her mother as Mary Boyer. What I have found on censuses is a John Shuffler but on all of them his wife is Susan or Lizzie or Elizabeth; no mention of a Mary. I know sometimes nicknames can take the place of real names...but I don't think this is the case here. My dead end is Maggie. I think she was born around 1863 in Burke County. Parents listed as John Shuffler and Mary Boyer on Death Cert. Death 17 Sept 1936 in Dallas, Gaston County, NC. She had an out of wedlock child named William Macon Shuffler; b. 1880 while living as a servant in Benjamin and Mary Barrier. I believe that their son Julius was the father of William Shuffler. Although no one talked of it during those times, it was known. Also, the pictures that I have shows two tall lanky men who look alike. Does anyone have information on any of these people that can shed light on Maggie Shuffler. She eventually married a James Mann Coleman, moved to Gaston County and had other children although William Shuffler never left the Barrier household. I have Earline's book on the History of Jonas Ridge. Please help. Email hookedonncgenealogy@yahoo.com Cindy (sorry if this went through twice...having trouble with internet.)
