Comments:“My uncle, Harry Shifflett gathered most of the information here. Regrettably, Harry Shifflett passed away on June 23, 2012. He was the son of Scott Johnathon Shifflett on the chart. He devoted much effort to genealogy research, and would be glad to see his efforts continued on this site.”

Past & Present of Bureau Cy, Il., Chgo Publishing Co., 1906
Submitted by Curt Hammond CurtnEmily@aol.com


NELSON SHIFFLET was born July 23, 1823, in Rockingham Cy, Va. is the son of Garland & Peacha Shifflet. The father was born in Rockingham Cy, Va., in 1799 (corrected to 1798) and died in this county in 1863. The mother was born in Rockingham Co., Va. in 1808 (corrected to 1802) and died in this county. They were the parents of 12 children. The subject of this sketch was raised on a farm in his native State until he came to this county with his parents at the age of nineteen and settled on the farm at present owned by James Wilson of Dover Township. Subsequently, the family moved southeast of Princeton where the father died. On May 27, 1850, Mr. Shifflet married Mary R. Hunt, the daughter of Abel & Mary Hunt, formerly from Massachusetts. Mrs. Shifflet died February 18, 1865. In 1851, Mr. Shifflet moved to Ohio Township and settled on his present farm of 160 acres. Of the above marriage is a family of seven children, four of whom are living, namely William M. b June 6, 1851, now living at Malcom, Ia; Albert F. b February 15, 1853 (now living in Malcom, Ia), Ida P. (now Mrs. A. L. Jones) Van Orin, Il. b March 26, 1856; Harry E. b October 6, 1864; Hannah R. died in 1866 age six years; Clementine died in infancy. On July 9, 1865, Mr. Shifflet was married to Eliza Ogden, daughter of Samuel & Tamar Ogden. The father was from Virginia, the mother from Pennsylvania. The father died February 27, 1843. The mother is still living and is past eighty. Of this last marriage, there was a family of two children. The first died in infancy. Hattie T. was born March 6, 1870. Mr. Shifflet was formerly a Whig and is now a Republican. Owns 160 acres in Ohio Township and 185 acres, all improved, in Powesheik County, Ia. Mrs. Shifflet's grandfather, Samuel Ogden, was a soldier in the Revolutionary war. Her grandfather on the mother's side, Francis Johnston, was in the war of 1812. Mr. Shifflet's grandfather, John Self, was a soldier of the Revolution and also of the war of 1812. Mr. Shifflet's parentage on the father's side is French, and his grandfather Richard Shifflet, was a soldier in the French & English war, while his uncle on the mother's side-John Self-was in the war of 1812.

COMMENT from Curt Hammond
In interpreting the last two sentences above, Nelson is the Mr. Shifflet referred to. The John Self that was a soldier in the Revolution & also the war of 1812 was Peachy's father, and Nelson's uncle John Self that served in the war of 1812 and married Nancy Ary in Jan 1824 in Ohio, was Peachy's brother. However, we believe that Richard was Garland's grandfather and Nelson's great grandfather.
