This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: SHEPPEARD, PHELPS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DFC.2ACI/2302 Message Board Post: I seek names of parents, siblings, ancestors of Dr. James William SHEPPEARD (my g g grandfather), b. Wood County March 21 1822; died in Kansas Apr 27 1903 (possibly 1902),. I also need similar data for his wife Ruth Lucinda PHELPS, birth date unknown, probably also from Wood County. They were married in or near Parkersburg Nov. 22 or 25 1843. Any information at all on either family, where they came to Wood County from and when, would be much appreciated. I can share records on their descendants.
