Can any body help me figure out who this person was? The information was transcribed from the United Stated Dept. of History and Archives, Washington D. C. by Mrs. Grace Garrett McIntyre 21 April 1968. I had thought this was Jacob, son of John and Hannah but I'm not sure. It also refers to a "Letter of Administration to Abraham Shiver on the Estate of Jacob Shiver, Deceased". I did not find this letter in my research and it should explain just who his kids were if we could find it. The documents I picked up were at the Albany Library in Albany Ga. If anyone has any ideas or has already linked this individual up, please let me know.
