Hi, I am Twila Shiverdecker Costello. e-mail twilac@ix.netcom.com My research lines are as follows: Shiverdecker/Sheverdecker/Sheveldakers/ Sheffendaker/Shiveldicker, Floyd, Weaver, Martin, Purtee/Partee, Renz, Bauer, Requarth, Neitert, Dismeier, Treibold, Gurwell, Grissom, Ridgely, Hague, Dunkin, Burns, Wysong, Hammer, Gard, Rex, Garrett, House, and Wolverton. The line for Shiverdecker (?Spellings) starts in Va. around 1750's. Michael was a Rev. War Soldier according to the Va. Militia list and Preble Co. Ohio list of War Pensioners. In the Va. Militia list a Jacob ?Spelling Shiveltaker is listed. Jacob seems to be Michaels father according to deeds for property purchased in Stephensburg in 1765. I realize this is actually Stephens City Va. present day. Michael sold his lots and moved to Kanawha Co. in 1792. This area is now W. V. The family moved to Ohio around 1820 approx. and Michael died in Preble Co. Ohio 1833. His wife was Ann Garrett b approx. 176? d. 1845 in Preble Co. Ohio. My Purtee line is George b. approx. 1756 in the Blue Lickes of Kentucky. According to Kentucky no white children were born in that area that early in the century. It could have been Penn., W.V., or Va. so if any info on the Purtee line I would appreciate it. This is a pretty lone first note. If you have any suggestions for me I am open to any and all help I can get. Love Twila
