In the 1860 census for Blissfield, Lenawee Co, they are shown with Alonzo age 2 and Elma 6/12. Peleg was a carpenter in both census. In the 1850 census, he is shown living with his father Milo Sheldon 45, mother Sophronia? 35, Abagail 18, Linidn? 11, Celia 6, Charley 4, Isaac N 6/12. I could not find them listed in any other census. I began searching each image for Olympia in the 1920 census, but time got short. They could have been in Olympia to be close to one of their children? If he died in 1927, he was about 94. In the 1920 census for Olympia, I find an "A.D. Sheldon" born in New York about 1873, as was Peleg. A "Lorenzo Sheldon" born in New York aout 1834. And a "Ralph Sheldon", born in Michigan about 1880. In the book "Brown's city directory of Adrian, Mich. : with a complete list of resident citizens, as [sic] also, a classified business directory, showing the address of merchants, manufacturers and those following the various pursuits and professions within the limits of our city Adrian, Mich.: C.E. Brown, 1870, 161 pgs. page, 131 is shown: "Sheldon Peleg, Carpenter J. Everiss, res. e. s. Ormsby, cor. Chesnut" This indicates he was working for J. Everiss and lived on east South Ormsby at the corner of Chesnut (spelling is correct, but probably was chestnut)
