Shipleys of MD, 2002, shows another possibility.Another William SHIPLEY, parents and spouse unknown, had a son Robert SHIPLEY, spouse also unknown.That Robert drowned near St. Louis in 1823.He was father of Robert SHIPLEY (14 Aug. 1814, Barren Co., KY - 31 Aug. 1883, bu. private Shipley Cem., near Monroe, Benton, OR).Robert was of Miller Co., MO, 1850.First wf. Charlotte MULKEY d. 30 Sep. 1853, west of Corvallis, OR.
I checked the 1850 database for Miller Co., MO, and the family data agrees. Marian must have died before 1850.
I checked the database of the 1810 Census for Barren Co., KY, and there were George, Robert, and Roth [?abbreviation for another Robt?] SHIPLEY.
In Barren Co., KY, in 1850, there was still a Robert SHIPLEY, b. ca. 1813, with wf. Sarah, 1817, & Uriah & Virginia, both 1844.Who were they?
