Buried Prize Hill in an unmarked grave to the right of the gate close to the fence. f/SWS Bruce Family chart.

July 2000 -- Last Monday Chestley and I went to the location where Jesse lived when he was shot on the front porch in 26 July, 1903. The house has long been gone but Chestley says he remembers the house when he was young. Chestley said that the house was small with only a couple of rooms and a loft for the children to sleep. He said the front door was solid wood (no window opening) and that he was told that the bloody handprints of Jesse remained on the door for many years. The house was to the left of the tree. Jesse could look out his front door to Fox Mountain and could see the home of Charles P. Shiflett (m. Sarah Walton) about a third of the way up the mountain. The house stood to the left of the tree.

Hi Laban-

Thanks for responding. I’m Barbara Frazier Brinton and Mike is my husband’s name. Our email is set up through him, but I’m the descendant of William Hiden Shiflett. Sorry for the confusion. Yours was one of 2 emails on the site, if I recall correctly, so I guess the other one is for Bob Klein???

No, Lewis Shiflett and Sarah Hazelrigg were the parents of a different John Shiflett( William Hiden Shiflet’s father and presumably Artemissa’s first husband though I don’t have a specific marriage date for John and Artemissa). The professional researchers found that Artemissa’s father’s name is also John, but John Brock Shiflett, b about 1779 in Albemarle Co., VA. He married a Rhoda Ann (last name unknown) on 29 December 1798. She was born about 1780 and died in 1840 in Greene Co. John Brock Shiflett’s parents were Bland Shiflett and Vina who were married about 1745. Bland was born about 1745 in Albemarle Co. and died on 15 July 1840 while Vina was born about 1750 in Albemarle . Interestingly enough, this Bland Shiflett is the brother to the John Shiflett who was Lewis Shiflett’s father and was married to Joice Powell so I guess that would make Artemissa and John, William Hiden’s parents cousins, right? Both were the sons of yet another John Shiflett and Elizabeth Collins as I indicated in my original email. I’ll send both emails on to Bob Klein.

Thursday, February 18, 2010 From: "mike brinton"

I am a descendent of William Hiden Shiflett and Eliza Ann Roberts. They are my great, great grandparents since I am the daughter of Larry Joseph Frazier, son of Miley Franklin Frazier who was the son of William’s daughter Louisa. I have just a few points that I’d like to clarify, and some additional information I would like to add, if I may. I have seen Louisa often listed as Louisa G J Shiflett, presumably due to the elaborate handwriting of the census takers so that some letters often look like others, but she was actually Louisa E J Shiflett, and had several middle names: Louisa Ella Josephine (hence “E.J.” ) Agnes Ann Katherine (or perhaps the last few middle names were in a different order but I know that all those names were present). I have an enlargement of a copy of the 1850 census that lists her and I can easily see why it would look to some like a G, but in looking at the enlargement, it is definitely an elaborate cursive E (for Ella). Thanks! I have also found that there is more than one Louisa Shiflett ( a Louisa J Shiflett) who also has a brother William, but with a different middle initial (A or U) while ours was Louisa E J and her brother William Erastus Shiflett. The other Louisa and William’s mother was Elizabeth Herrin Shiflett, widow of Calvin Shiflett, who later had these 2 children with a T.J. Frazier, though from what I can see, they never married. Confusing, huh? The same names were used over and over again, people often went by their middle names or nick names, there was a great deal of intermarriage, etc.

Your website indicated that you are still looking for verification of William Hiden’s parents. I have his mother listed as Artemissa Shiflett and his father as John Shiflett, b about 1780 in Albemarle Co., VA . I have seen some documents that indicate that Artemissa married Leland Hardin Frazier (born about 1804, son of John Frazier and Lucy Shiflett, or he sometimes went by Leland Hardin Shiflett, his mother’s maiden name) but according to the information I have seen, that marriage would have taken place in 1856 when William Hiden was about 17 years old, so Leland would be William Hiden’s step-father. I subsequently have John Shiflett’s parents as follows: Lewis Shiflett (B 21 Oct, 1765, M Sarah Hazelrigg (b about 1765 in Albemarle Co., Va) 29 March, 1786. I have Lewis as the son of another John Shiflett b about 1735, M about 1762 to Joice Powell(b about 1743 in Albemarle Co. Va), with John dying in October, 1794 in Albemarle Co. Sarah Hazelrigg’s father was Abel Hazelrigg, b about 1722 in Albemarle, Co., VA M Mary Thurman in 1752, died in Albemarle after 10 Aug 1772, and Mary Thurman was b about 1731 in Albemarle, died July 1817. John Shiflett’s s father was also John Shiflett and his mother was Elizabeth Colliins, no other info in known about them. I have Joice Powell’s parents as John Powell and Anne Pyne w/ no further info. I have Abel Hazelrigg’s father as Richard Hazelrigg and his mother as Ann Williams, no further info. When I ran into some roadblocks in doing my own familky history, I had a professional genealogy company help me so some of this is info they uncovered. FYI, I have also seen William’s wife listed as Elizabeth , so perhaps Eliza was short for Elizabeth . Hope this helps.

Thanks so much! If any questions, please ask.

================
Calvin served in Company F, 35th Virginia Calvery, Private during the Civil War. Calvin is listed in Charlottesville Hospital from 30 March, 1863 to 18 May, 1863 with cystitis/debilitias. According to a great-great grandson of Calvin, his mother told him the story that her grandmother, Elizabeth, (Calvin's wife) had told her: "Calvin, along with several other cousins and soldiers deserted in 1864/65 time frame due to lack of food, clothing and horses. A number of them were captured and held in the basement of a large, white house in Boonesville, Albemarle County, Virginia. Just a day or so before the end of the War, Elizabeth was bringing some food for the prisoners and as she was coming over the hill she heard gunshots from the house. Calvin and several others, including Tipton Walton, were executed. Several others were able to make a successful escape". Note: Tipton and Sallie Dowell Walton's daughter, Sarah Ann, married CalvinÕs son, Charles P. Shiflett in 1870.

Calvin is most likely buried in the Old Shiflett Cemetery on the Lynch River on the late Leo Shiflett farm which is a few miles from where he was shot or possibly on Frazier Mountain. After Calvin's death, Elizabeth took up with Tom Frazier. Tom and Elizabeth had two children; Louisa J. Frazier, born 1868 and William A. "Little Tommy" Frazier, born 1871. (See below.)

Notes for MARY BIRD BRUCE:
Comments: In 1958 and '59, and again in 1965, George Foss went through the White Hall and Bacon Hollow areas, recording songs and stories from the people who lived there. One of the people interviewed was Marybird Bruce McAllister. In '58 and '59 he recorded 18 tapes of her. One interview concerned her life story. In it, she unequivocally states that George Herring was her uncle. She explains, "George Herr'n's my uncle, Pap's half brother. The daddy was the daddy of both of 'em, but wasn't the same mammy. " Marybird's father was Larkin Bruce. Larkin's father (and also the father of George Herrin) was Louden Bruce.

He married (2) LUCINDA F. BREEDEN February 15, 1892/93 in Albemarle Co, VA, daughter of JAMES BREEDEN and SARAH UNKNOWN.

Notes for WILLIAM HIDEN SHIFFLETT:
Comments: Still looking for verification of William Hiden Shifflett's parents. On his marriage to Lucinda Breeden, he lists his parents as John and Artemissa Shifflett. (f/Shiflet Website)

According to Beatrice Powell, George Miner and Alex Shiflet, George's son were the only men of this family that did not drink a lot.

(Also refer John Brock Shifflett notes)
1850 Greene Co. Census, p.341-342, William H. appears to be the grandson of John Shiflett (Father of Artimissa) According to the age of this John, he is probably John Brock Shifflett.
The following is a transcription of the above census record:

43 John Shiflett 71
Elizabeth 48
William J Morris 33
Lurenna Morris 30
B(?) M Shiflett 17
William H. 11

1880 Greene Co. Census- H of HH
1900 Greene Co. Census- H of HH/ Divorced"
================

William and Lucinda divorced about 1900.

Many of the dates of children, marriages, etc on William Hiden line from Eugene Powell, and Kim Morris.

================

William Hiden Shifflett who married Eliza Ann Roberts in Greene County, Virginia Dec. 20, 1860. The marriage certificate shows William's mother as Artimpa or Artimissa Shifflett. No father is listed.

His second marriage to Lucinda Breeden lists his parents as John and Artemissa Shifflett.

However, I have been told by other Shifflett researchers that William's father was believed to be Leland Hardin Shifflett who went by Leland Frazier who married Artemissa Shifflett. Leland was married twice, the other marriage to America or Ann Mallory. Both marriage certificates list Leland as Leland Shifflett not Frazier.

Leland and Artemissa were married in Greene County, VA in 1856 just 4 years earlier than William and Eliza. Leland was still living in 1860 so why wasn't he listed on Willliam's marriage certificate?

Notes for EDMUND JR SHIFFLETT:
>BD according to Shifflett family Bible records
>Twin to Issac.
>Some supporting info f/ book "Stephen Shifflett of High Top" by Barbara Shifflett Hensley and Larry F. Shifflett.

>I believe that the following circumstantial evidence suggests that this Edmund (Jr) could be the father (Edd) of Charles Henry Davis. See also, Mary Davis & Edd Shifflett record.

Evidence is as follows:
(1) Both Edmund and Mary Davis are c.20 yrs old in the 1850 Rock Co census.
(2) Edmund and Mary Davis are 5 census HH's apart in the same 1850 Rock Co census.
(3) This Edmund is the ONLY Ed, Edward, Edmund, etc that matches the closeness in age to Mary Davis in 1850 Rock Co and other adjoining counties.....assuming that the Shiflet books are both complete and correct.
(4) It appears that this Edmund is the only Ed living in the local vicinity of Mary Davis during the 1850-51 time period.
(5) Charles Henry Davis was born in Nov 1851.
(6) Edmund's mother Milly Wyant, and Mary's mother Francis Wyant, are sisters, establishing at least a blood connection (1st cousin) if not a possible intimate relationship between Ed and Mary. [L. West]
(7)On Charles' death certificate, Edd Shifflett is listed as the father.

George Miner died from complications of pneumonia. He apparently developed pneumonia after he had been moving and carrying furniture on his back, in the rain, from his homesite (on the Hollow Rd) to another local dwelling place. He was having to move due to government takeover of land for the development of Shenandoah National Park. The park boundary was eventually established about halfway between Alex/Myrtie's home on Beldore Rd (near Simmons Gap Rd) and George Miner's home up the hollow several hundred yards. (f/Mabel Shifflett West)

George and Virginia had 21 children. BP

BP said that Otis Shifflett said that there were 5 dead children (of Geo. & Virginia) in the house at one time......from scarlet fever (or diptheria).

John and other men were building a chimney. These men told Uncle John that the chimney would not stand. Uncle John replied...O she'll stand, no problem. Shortly after....bam, the chimney fell...and all laughed. (f/Mabel Shifflett West)

Beatrice Powell says that John drank, and was kinda tilty quite a bit of the time, and built his chimneys kinda tilty also. Beatrice also remembers use to walk down the road always carrying a stick on his shoulder with a napsack tied to the end. She remembers hearing that John lived with his daughter Liza in Island Ford. This was when she (Beatrice) was living with her Grandparents (Warren and Ella) up the hollow road prior to attending 5th grade at the Blue Ridge School in Dyke, Va.

Beatrice also told a story (weekend of Aug 18, 1999) about John's family......... Johns wife had died and Warren said John and children could come and live in a 1 rm house, grainery building, with a fireplace, which was part of Ella & Warren's property up the hollow road.....It was winter time and cold..... John would be gone working and the kids would go to the creek and get water and pour over the fire and put it out and then pour water on the floor in front of the fireplace, open the doors and let the water freeze and the kids would skate barefooted on the ice that formed in front of the fireplace. (John had wanted to keep the fire going to have heat when he got back) You had to climb up on a stump to get in the door, and the kids use to come out and holler, "Aunt Ella, What time is it?" And Ella said something like...."your behinds gonna be on fire, you'll know what time it is when Johnny gets home".

Beatrice asked Uncle Johnny one time when she was a kid, "Well, where did you all sleep?" Johnny said, "we all slept in the same bed, get warm that way." Beatrice said, "Well what if somebody wanted to turn over and you didn't?" He said, "I'd just say, let's turn all together boys".

Notes for ELLA JANE DAVIS:
First funeral I (Laban West) ever remember attending. I remember standing in front of the funeral home in Elkton, Va, looking down the street, waiting for other relatives to arrive.

Lived at extreme end of Hollow Road on right side of creek (going up). Evelyn and I would go up to stay with her at times. We slept in feather bed with Aunt Ella. She talked in her sleep ...to the cow (Ol Lil)....she would call out....then she'd give a big kick....sometimes kicking us. We would giggle and laugh. She talked loud, was kinda funny but sweet. We loved her so much. She'd get up in the morning and make homemade biscuits, ham, eggs, and fried apples. She cried a lot because of her children and their troubles. She showed me two gold dollars (earned by her husband Warren working for RR)....was supposed to be a secret. She told me not to tell anyone. I use to sit on a big rock and watch Aunt Ella churn butter at the spring area across the creek from her house. (f/Mabel Shifflett West)

Death certificate lists mother as Columbia Jane Herring. The informant on the death certificate is listed as Mrs Daisy Miller. Beatrice Powell says this Daisy Miller would have to be Lona Miller (Ella's daughter). Not sure where the Daisy came from.

===========================

I was chatting with mom (Mabel) on 13Sep2008. I asked her if she remembered any big rocks in the vicinity of their house in Beldor Hollow. The first thing that came to her mind was a huge rock that she said was right by the spring near Aunt Ellas house up in the hollow. In fact she said there was a great big rock and also a smaller one that she use to sit on to watch Aunt Ella. Location of this rock and the spring was on the same side of the creek as Ella's house and just down the hollow a little bit from Ella's house and fairly close to the creek.

Mabel Shifflett West remembers, as a 2 yr, the trama & excitement of someone running from Uncle Bernard's house to their house in Beldor with the news of the shooting.

=================================================
MOTHER KILLED, BABY HURT BY SHOT FROM INFANT SON

FIVE YEAR OLD BOY DISCHARGES SHOTGUN INTO HIS MOTHER’S BREAST
------------------
BABY’S LEFT ARM SHOT OFF
------------------
MOTHER WAS PICKING SPLINTER FROM BABY’S FOOT WHEN THE
ACCIDENT OCCURRED.

Mrs. Bernard Shifflett, of Roadside, seven miles east of Elkton, was shot and almost instantly killed and her eleven-months-old daughter Ruth had her left arm shot off and a deep flesh wound inflicted yesterday morning when a loaded shotgun with which five-year-old George Shifflett was playing discharged and hit the mother and babe at close range.
The mother was dead when the father reached the home shortly afterwards, and the baby was brought to the hospital here during the afternoon by Dr. J.R.Shacklett, where Dr. J.H.Deyerle amputated her arm between the elbow and the shoulder.

MR. SHIFFLETT ABSENT
According to reports of the tragedy, Mr. Shifflett, who is a farmer had gone to work and the older of the seven children at home had gone to school at Roadside leaving the baby, the five-year-old son, George, and a daughter older than him at home with the mother.
The mother was sitting on a bed picking a splinter out of the baby’s foot, which she was holding on her lap. The older child got the shotgun from some place in the house and was tampering with it according to the reports, when it discharged, the full load of shot entering the mother’s chest, and at the same time mangling the babe’s arm and chest. It is believed the boy had procured the shell and placed it in the gun at some previous time, unknown to the parents.
The older daughter at home ran at once and told her father, who was about three hundred yards away that brother had shot the baby. Mr. Shifflett hastened to his home to find that not only was the child seriously wounded, but that his wife was lying across the bed in a dying condition.

MOTHER DIES AT ONCE
Dr. J.R.Shacklett, at Elkton, was immediately summoned and on his arrival pronounced the mother dead and set about to dress the baby’s injuries. As soon as arrangements could be made, the infant was brought to the Rockingham Memorial Hospital where Drs. Deyerle and Shacklett amputated the mangled member near the shoulder.
Mrs. Shifflett was about forty years of age, and before marriage was Miss Fannie Davis, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Davis of Roadside. Surviving are the husband, six children, Wilmer, 20 years old, Elmer, 17, Nellie, 15, Herman, 13, George, 5 and Ruth, eleven months, her parents, and the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. Elic Shifflett, of Beldor; Mrs. Warren Shifflett of Simmons Gap; Warren Davis of Green County; Arthur Davis of Simmons Gap; Luther Davis of Bemis, W. Va.; and George Davis whose address could not be learned. Funeral services, it was announced, will be held from the Davis home
this afternoon at 2:00 o’clock.

Notes for NOAH SHIFFLETT:
Lillie Coleman Herring Shifflet, her husband, Noah Shifflett and all of
Lillie's children by George Robert Herring, went to West Virginia for a year
and then returned to Virginia. There are several accounts of how Noah
physically abused his wife, Lillie. He slashed her arm with a knife so badly
that she lost some use of it. That's when she left him and the children(now
including the new baby, Lillie Shifflett). I think this is the reason I
coulnd't find out who Noah Shifflett was, except that his grandparents had
taken in several of the children. (f/J.Pryor)

75. ALEXANDER "ALEX"8 SHIFFLETT (GEORGE MINOR7, WILLIAM HIDEN6, JOHN5, LEWIS4 SHIFLETT, JOHN3, JOHN2, UNKNOWN1) was born September 24, 1885 in Rockingham Co, VA, and died April 25, 1975 in Waynesboro, PA. He married MYRTIE ANNE ELIZABETH DAVIS February 08, 1906 in East Point, Rockingham Co, Va, daughter of CHARLES DAVIS and COLUMBIA HERRING. She was born October 20, 1886 in Rockingham Co, VA, and died April 08, 1961 in Smithsburg, MD.

Notes for ALEXANDER "ALEX" SHIFFLETT:
Listed as Alexander Shifflett on Soc.Sec. Death Index.
In Early 1975 Alex was still living in the summer kitchen on Newcomer Rd next to the big house where Owen lived (formerly Alex and Myrties place). About a month before Alex died, he got up in the night and somehow fell over a chair. He must have thought he was okay because Owen didn't take him to the Dr until a couple days later when his neck was hurting so bad. The Dr said that he had evidently broken his neck and around the same time was diagnosed with a mild stroke. They put him in the hospital with a brace. Mom (Mabel) said that the Dr was not sure whether the fall caused the stroke or whether the stroke caused the fall.

Alex spent about 2 weeks in the hospital. Mabel was up from Norfolk to help take care of him. After the two weeks they put him in a nursing home in/near Hagerstown. Mabel continued to help with him along with Cecil and Owen. Alex never did recover back to normal. He knew who people were (i.e. Bill and Sharon) but didn't always know names. Two weeks later (April 25) Alex died with Mabel at his side. The rest of the family had already gone home for the evening.

=============
Mabel Shifflett on where everyone slept in Alex & Myrties home by the creek (refer Scrapbook #2): In the wintertime there was one bed in the front room because they had to keep a stove going for heat. In the summer time there were two beds there. There were two beds upstairs in the loft or attic and in the kitchen there was a day bed where she and dad slept...in the kitchen. Grace, Cecil and (Mabel) slept together. Dennis, Owen and Delbert slept together.

=============

Alex and Myrtie moved to MD from Beldore Rd in/around 1929. Through Elmer Shifflett (son of Bernard) Alex and Myrtie and family were able to secure housing and work on the John Newcomer farm near Ringgold Md. This was around the same time the gov't was requiring folks to move out of the mtns...for the establishment of Shenandoah National Park. They lived on the Newcomer farm until c.1935 when they bought the house across the street from Pete Yaniski. This is the same house they lived in until the Uncle Owen bought it from them in the 1960's after Myrtie died. Prior to Pete owning the home, the house was occupied by Cyrus Minnicks parents. (f/Mabel Shifflett West)

=============
Around 1933-34 mom bought a cafe from the United Brethern-Quincy Orphanage for $8.00. She named it Flossie and this is the cow that later kept putting her foot in the bucket when Alex would try to milk her.
Mom graduated from HS in 1937 and about the same time, due to the influence of a HS friend named Martha Rowe, went to Baltimore Springgrove State Hospital for Nursing Training, and graduated in 1939 as a LPN in psychiatric work.

=============

Do not remember of my papa (Alex) ever spanking me. He drove horse and buggy, took me to Shenandoah, VA to have one of my lower molar teeth extracted. When I was between 3-4 years old...Papa drove in horse and buggy...took me to Harrisonburg for blood work...numerous times. I was diagnosed having encephalitis...I did not open my eyes for 1 yr.... had to be led as a blind child. Papa was good to me. He would leave plough in field...hook up horse to brand new wagon...mom put lots of quilts in bed of wagon....then all got into wagon, drove up to Simmons Gap to the Episcopalian church (stone building) to revival. The church was just over the gap. We attended every night for 2 weeks when revival was on. (f/Mabel Shifflett West)
================

STORY WRITTEN MY MABEL SHIFFLETT WEST - Jan 1999

An experience I shall never forget. My father (Alex) who we always called Papa, made a trip to the mill to have wheat ground into flour, corn into corn meal. he had a brand new wagon, painted green with red wheels; he used for only special occasions.....this was one of those times.

When he told Dennis and me, we could go with him, we were ever so thrilled. We seldom ever got to go anywhere, so this was a real joy to be able to ride to Elkton, VA, with Papa. He loaded the wagon and he sat on the high attached springboard seat. Dennis and I sat on the floor bed of the wagon.....we were so thrilled to have this opportunity to ride into a town an dout of the mountains. I do not remember if Mom packed a lunch for us, but rather believe she did. we started out real early, and arrived home very late....an all day trip. We had to travel via Piney Gap road ....I think about 7 miles....through the mtns to the River Road. Prior to our trip, all of the mtn areas including Elkton area had had as we called it a cloud burst. All of the creeks, streams and yes, the Shenandoah river had risen tremendously high. It looked so enraged and water was rustling, making such a loud sound, that seemed so scary as we rode along side the river road. Nance (our horse) was pulling the wagon. Nance was so gentle with us children. We had driven to a place where Papa always forded the river. The mill was on the other side. Papa could have driven another mile to a bridge....which meant 2 more miles to travel. Don't really know why he chose to play Moses since the river was so high....but he did. Dennis and I were still sitting on the floor of the wagon when Papa entered the river which was swift and powerful. Papa then stepped on to the shaft of the wagon, walked to the neck of Ole Nance and loosened the rein on her neck. Dennis and I were so frightened that he would fall into the river. At this time Papa told us to get up and sit on the high seat. We really had to hold tight for fear the raging water would hit the wagon and turn it over. Papa kept going.....to try to back up would have been disastrious. Papa spoke gently to Nance to go slowly......"easy now....easy now". I can remember so well Dennis and I, though so young, had deep perception of what could have happened if Nance would become frightened. But, Nance really had good "horse sense". She would put one foot out at a time...tap down to feel if she had a solid footing. She continued this way across the river. Needless to say, Papa didn't say a word, not did he act scared when we got on the other side.. Later in life he spoke of the experience. After the grinding of the grain, wagon loaded, Dennis and I hoped Papa would go the one mile further and use the bridge........but he didn't. We had the same hairraising experience on the return trip through the river......still wondering if at any moment Nance would step in a deep hole and overturn the wagon with all of us in it. I didn't realize then as I do now that God was looking down while we were looking up. He was our rock and our Protector. END OF STORY.

================================

BP relates the following story (27 Mar 99) about Alex.
Foster Shifflett and Beatrice and other children when young and playing around the house. Foster would get into the spice cabinet knocking down the spices. Alex would get so upset.......he told Foster if he ever got into it again that he would have to lick it up. Sure enough, Foster knocked down the ginger spice spilling it on the floor. Alex got the strap and stood behind Foster making him lick the spice up off the floor. Grandma Myrtie was out at the spring house getting milk. When she came back to the house, the children were crying & Foster was licking the ginger off the floor. Myrtie was really upset with Alex for treating Foster that way....especially since he was MR. Beatrice says she saw the whole thing.

Notes for MYRTIE ANNE ELIZABETH DAVIS:
Feb 8, 1956: Alex and Myrtie's "Golden Aniversary" at their home on Newcomer Rd, Ringgold, MD. I (LPWest) was about 6 yrs old. My mom tells me that I and Mary Ella Shifflett (Delbert's dau.) kept running to the door and asking for packages (gifts) from the people that came to the Aniversary party. They had to keep us away from the door.

According to my mom (Mabel), Alex and Myrtie moved to Bemus WVA for a short period of time.... probably in latter 1910 after the birth of Cecil. Alex worked on the RR there. Myrtie cooked all the food for the RR workers. Not sure if they lived in RR housing or what the food arrangement was. They would have moved back to VA by the time Owen was born in Sep of 1911. While they were in WVA, a baby boy was born and died.... this info from Myrtie via Mabel. Also (from Cathy Phillips), the Rock Co VA birth record of Dennis says that he is the 6th child born to Myrtie, which seems to confirm the 'child born/died in WVA story'..... unless all of this has something to do with the Josie A and Cecil Clyde mystery (refer Cecil notes).

Notes for WILLIAM OWEN SHIFFLETT:
Mom West (Mabel Shifflett) tells a story that Owen would remember well..... about a Lydia Eaton who alledgely live with a Stewart Sowers up off the Red Road. Lydia smoked a pipe and wore a waist-tie apron. One one occasion she was standing on Alex and Myrtie's front porch smoking the pipe. Someone came by that she evidently didn't want to see her smoking the pipe.....so she stuck it in her apron pocket. It then caught the apron on fire and Owen and Mabel laughingly remembers seeing her slapping her pocket trying to put the fire out. f/Mabel 20jun2000

Retired late 40s (?) with 20+ yrs in the Navy. Moved from Norfolk with Ruth and kids to Maryland sometime toward the end of the 1940's. Mom (Mabel) thinks that Owen and Ruth must have moved from Norfolk to Maryland soon after Mom and Gordon got married in Jan of 1949. Her reasoning for this is because she remembers living at Owen and Ruths on Cottage Toll Rd (Tidewater Dr), and leaving that location to go to the bus station on the day she and Gordon were married. She and Gordon left from the bus station in Norfolk to go to Williamsburg where they were married. (Mom/Jul2008)

Lona went to town, and when she got back, Dennis had painted 2 boards on the ceiling of the porch. Lona said what have you been doing all day? And Dennis said he'd been painting.......I got these two boards painted. Beatrice said you'd a thought he had been painting with a toothbrush.

EXERPT OF LETTER FROM DENNIS TO MABEL AND GORDON WEST
May 25, 1989
I hope you two are getting along okay............there was an earthquake in this area tonight...a single one sharp quake..5:50 p.m......... (page4) Last week worked on my old car. Put in new plugs, fuel filter, air filter, etc. Have to get new shock absorbers. It sounds like our old road wagon..but it had steel rims. I think I understand why Dad (Alex) forded the Shenandoah. First the flour barrel was about empty and mother (Myrtie) did the cooking and baking. Dad didn't dare to come home empty handed. He passed the swinging bridge area...it also was washed away; he intended, I'm sure, on carrying the grain across the bridge... but it was gone. So, he had to ford it. I have been with him several times on the old wheel ferry.....that was better than the bridge. Had he used the bridge, you and I would have remained in the wagon...so we had to go along. I don't think he tried to commit us to the deep. Believe he went to the Elkton mill which was just across the bridge at Elkton. I didn't mind the Elkton trip. I used to walk the swinging bridge at Yancy as he carried the grain over and carried flour and corn meal back. I was holding to his overall pants leg....looking down at the river. I said to Dad "I think we are washing away". So dad said don't look down. ha. I believe that incident has put me against riding airplanes....I can't stand extreme heights. Believe we were talking on phone about GrandDad Davis. I loved to go up to their place on an errand. Gran Ma Bird was a good cook. She often gave me some good cookies, pie, or cake before leaving. I never knew Grand Dad Davis was a Shifflett until Uncle Geo. (Davis) in Montana said he was orphaned during Civil War. Davis family adopted him at about 10 yrs of age. He use to break out his old Civil War musket. It must have been about 5 ft in length...very heavy. He loved to have some friends from Shenandoah Valley stay at his place and talk about the Civil War and its battles. I know one was a Yancy. also another one was a Weaver. Also a Mr. Hosea Shifflett...a farmer from the Shenandoah Valley at Yancey.....came by once or twice a month riding a big sorrell horse...the horse was chewing tobacco and slobbering at the mouth. Do you know if Jake Herring was related to Noah Herring?.....In the 1988 Guiness World Record Book I found Roy Sullivan's name. He was struck by lightning 7 times and survived .....Roy Sullivan was forrest ranger in Simmons Gap area.......He was Arthur Sullivan's son. Dave Sullivan was his Uncle. According to the book Roy took his own life. In my recollection, Agness stayed with Gran Pa Davis and Gran Ma Bird for quite awhile. After she and Everett were married they probably moved away.........Must close for now. Could go on with another 10 pages.....You two take care and God bless. Love Dennis and Geraldine

[I (LPW) have reservations re: the "orphaned" part of this letter. Does not pan out with census records and other info that I have found, unless orphaned could mean that his real dad (Edd Shifflett) died, and he took his mothers maiden name....Davis.]]

===========================================
EXERPT OF LETTER TO MABEL AND GORDON WEST
Dated Aug 23, 1989 from Dennis Shifflett

Have been waiting to write for the past week but my arm was not ready for it............. (page 3) Spoke with Laban (West) about Gran Pa Hayden Shifflett...said he was born, I believe, around 1838. Found a book in L.A. library called "Albamarle County, Va" ...think it was pg.61, published 1976. Don't know author. He said 4000-5000 British and Hessian soldiers were taken at the battle of Saratoga...1779. All prisoners sent to the state of MA. The prison in MA ran short of supplies so Congress ordered them sent to a plantation or a tract of land...donated by some big wig in Albamarle Co near charlottesville, Va. The prisoners, British and Hessian soldiers were placed in this prison compound ....4000 1779. They hired guards 50 miles away to guard the prisoners. By 1780-82 only 800 prisoners remained at the prison. Guards let many go... (Hessian soldiers)...as long as they promised not to return to British forces or army. They had no prisoner list on paper, so, they disappeared in the Blue Ridge Mts near Charlottesville, Va. The arthor said the name Shifflett is very likely derived from this Hessian soldier escapees. Hessian soldiers were hired by Britian to fight American forces in the Revolutionary War. I also saw where 13 Shiffletts applied for government pension during the war of 1812 in VA. The arthor also said there were 250 Shifflett children in Albemarle Co public schools in 1976. He also said a Shifflett at the time of the prison escape had been living in the prison area and applying a trade for 30 yrs. So one wonders about all the implied creations of some of these so called (two-bit) historians. Guess we'll have to take it with a grain of salt. A party in Ohio sent me info relating to the name Shifflett having been knightd during the "War of the Roses" in the 1200-1300 area. I lost that saga! Must close. Write when you can.

DENNIS AND WWII as told by Mabel Shifflett West. Jan 1999.

Dennis and I worked in Baltimore, MD in 1939-1940. We had evening time to go walking and talking. He told me he had a dream....telling him he was inthe army and war broke out......where ever he was in the dream he said he was wading in blood. This dream helped him in making the decision to join the Navy. I gathered from this that if he had to die in war he'd rather go to a watery grave than one in blood. Dennis joined the navy (not sure of exact date).

I was working in Pinebluff, NC at the Pinebluff Sanatarium on Dec 7, 1941. I was in the nurses office setting up medication for the patients around 11:00 a.m. when one of our patients (room across the hall) ran to me screaming she had just heard over the radio that Pearl harbor had been attacked by the Japanese. You could never know how I felt .....knowing Dennis was in there on the USS California. Making contact to home, Mom had heard nothing. I am sure many were praying for Dennis as all our boys. Mom didn't receive any word nor did anyone else until March 31, 1942. He had escaped without even a scratch. Learning later his bunk was located right behind the magazine (ammunition) rack. [According to Joanne, his daughter, Dennis was in the ships music room at the time of the attack. Had he been in his bunk, he may not have survived. Lpw] Still he escaped while no doubt hundreds were killed or drowned during this ordeal. Almost immediately Dennis was assigned to the USS Chicago. I do not remember how long he was on this ship before it was torpedoed and it sank very rapidly. Dennis related to me later that many, many men jumped too close to the ship.....they were swallowed in oil and water to their deaths under the suction of the ship going down. Dennis, the Lord watching over him, jumped.....he and two other guys....far enough out and away from the ship. They swam in thick oil...God only knows how long. They were in the Pacific many hrs before they were rescued. Not sure....think they may have swam to a very small island before they were picked up. Dennis was then assigned to ....I think....the USS OKlahoma. (Owen thought it was a different ship...the USS Wyoming) Whatever the ship....the battle stern was blown to bits....Dennis escaped again without injury. From there, Dennis was assigned the ship ARD 16. Not sure how long he was on that ship...but during his tenure on the ARD16 he became quite ill. He was flown to the Navy Hospital in Honolulu where he had major surgery. After recuperation he was walking a street in Honolulu.....who should he see coming up the street but Uncle Mose. Mose had joined the navy after his 3rd wife, Edith, died. Dennis and Mose had a great family reunion. Dennis told me after the war ended and he was home, that he had already been through his hell. This should be an indication as to what he had suffered.

Dennis had a pocket Bible in his possession on the USS California. It was long after WWII had ended when the USS California was raised from the bottom of Honolulu harbor. The Bible had also went to the bottom.

Sometime before the war Dennis had been in W. VA and met a young lady there. They had corresponded evidently. Dennis had recorded her name along with his in this Bible. When the USS California was raised the chaplain was looking through the ship and found the Bible. Dennis' name wasn't legible enought to read, but this young lady's name was clear and also her address. The chaplain sent the Bible to her. She either wrote or called mom and told mom about receiving the Bible. She kept it and would not honor Dennis' mom by sending it to her. What a miracle, the Word lives on, regardless of who possesses it.

Not sure of timing...but during one of Dennis' tenure in the navy his ship was in port at Sydney, Australia. The men, while in port, were entertained and shown great hospitality. During the time Dennis was in Sydney, he met a lady named Joanne. He was entertained in her home....her folks were very hospitable. Dennis fell for Joanne...she too must have fallen for him. While on one of the ships he saw fit to become a Catholic. He told me later, the Catholic Priest's showed much greater interest and compassion toward the needs of the men on the ship than did the Protestant ministers. Therefore he was converted to Catholicism. Joanne was Protestant. During their time together and correspondence, she told Dennis she would come to California and become Catholic and marry him. After the war was over, Dennis at home, received a letter from Joanne stating she could not come to the states and become Catholic, therefore the marriage was off. Dennis was beside himself. I told him, buy a car, start traveling until Joanne and war got out of his system to the point he could live with himself and others. He landed in CA, found Geraldiine, married, and joined the navy for another 6 years.

ROADSIDE SCHOOLHOUSE STORIES by Mabel... Mar 2008
Mom was telling me how she and others would take corn to the Roadside schoolhouse early in the morning when the woodstove was hot. They would put the corn on the top of the stove and wait for it to burn kind of crisp, and then eat it like popcorn before school.

She also said that she and Dennis and another person (?) would get to the school house early sometimes and climb up on the woodpile inside the one-room school. They would crawl through a trap door in the ceiling and hide, waiting for the teacher to come into the classroom. They would then make noise in the attic, trying to scare the teacher. The teacher would then say "Come on down kids... I know you are up there".


STORY BY MABEL....Written Jan 1999.

SNAKE AT THE ROCK
When I was 3 or 4, I had an experience which was quite terrifying. Mom wanted some huckleberries to make pies on a Sat afternoon. She asked Papa if he would go upon the ridge and pick the berries, so as Papa went he got me by the hand and I went with him. He went up the ridge between where Uncle Harrison lived and our spring off the Hollow Rd. When Papa got to the top of the ridge slightly over...where it was somewhat flat......there was a fairly good size rock which was also flat on the top. a good place to sit or sleep. The sun was beating down up on us ....so hot. Papa told be to sit on the rock while he went down the side of the mtn to pick the berries. He warned me not to go to sleep fearing a snake could crawl up and bite me. Well, I did exactly what he told me not to do.....I laid on the rock and went sound asleep. Papa woke me when he came back and told me not to move. A snake had surrounded the rock. He couldn't get to me and killed the snake. He didn't fuss with me, but warned me again. He and I went down the mtn to the house where mom baked her pies and all was well. Now being older, I must say God had his hand on us.

STORIES BY MABEL.....Written Jan 1999

BIG SISTER....LITTLE SISTER
Though there is 10 yrs difference in age, Cecil and I have always been very close. Our parents took in Uncle Mose Shifflett's four chirlren upon the death of their mother, Aunt Pearl. This meant our parents had 10 children to feed, clothe, etc, which also required lots of work. When each child got old enough to work....work it was. I give this as a background for what I am about to write.
As I remember, Cecil was the one who looked out for all the children. she was the one who carried water, heated water, poured into wash tup, etc. she would bathe each of us....Dennis, Delbert, Evelyn, Edith, foster, and me. Saw that we were properly dressed. She kept watch that we in our play did not get hurt, etc. She took special interest in me even when very small. I was always with her. an old wives tale, if a child had freckles, some one take that person to a wheat field on May 1st. My face was pretty well covered with freckles. when very small Cecil took me to a wheat field across the creek, into field belonging to Uncle Joe Wood so she could wash my face in the morning dew on the wheat heads. Cecil washed my face real good......didn't dry it off......the wind dried it. The freckles went away, not instantly but gradually.

The WILDCAT INCIDENT.....When Cecil went to do the milking, she always called for me to go with her. We had to walk a good way out the red road over to Mr. Burks place. The cows were fenced in the apple orchard at this particular time. Cecil was milking, when suddenly we heard a most heart curtling scream of a wild animal in the woods not far from us. We thought it was a wildcat. Cecil kept milking.......again we heard the scream...but the scream was coming closer. So Cecil said to me, "I'm going to stop milking and we are going to start running". My reply was what would mama say if we didn't have enough milk? Cecil said, "Mabel, don't tell on me, she will think the cow didn't let her milk down". We put the railing fence up and ran through a creek, opened and closed a big gate....by this time the animal was screaming in the very area where we had been. We ran all the way home. We kept that experience a secret all of our lives. (away from mom).

OIL LAMPS BEFORE ELECTRICITY
We did not have electricity in our home in Beldor by the creek. The only thing sorta electric was the phone in our house which was supplied by the local farmers or men owning cattle that was grazing on the mountain. If there was an emergency or problem with the cattle the phone could be use to call whoever. Also the phone could be used as a means to call a doctor, authorities, if there was any other type of emergency.

The following happened around 1929-30 at the old Newcomer farm house where we lived after moving from the Va. mtns. We did not have electricity in this home or on the Alex Shifflett farm across the road from the Newcomers until after I had graduated from HS in 1937. Therefore we used kerosene lamps. Every one was busy at something usually out side until dark. Don't know why, but it fell Cecil's lot to go up stairs and bring 2 lamps down. No one bothered to bring any down in the a.m. if it was light enough. Cecil was always and still is afraid of the dark. Each time she went to get the lamps she would call me. I was not old enough to be trusted with a lamp yet...9 or 10 yrs old. So, from the kitchen to living room Cecil would put me in front of her, lay one hand on each of my shoulders and we went up the steps....me ahead of her.....up the steps..on through the hallway into bedroom. Once she struck a match, lamp was lit, every-thing was fine.

BACK TO THE BELDOR HOUSE we lived in at the creek in Va. Mtns. Do not know where mom and Grace were but Cecil was working in kitchen. It was an extremely hot day when the sun beat down between the mtns with no wind. Dennis, Delbert, Evelyn, Edith Foster and I were all trying to get some shade under the apple tree. I thought I had a real bright idea by going to screen door and telling Cecil if she'd let me in I would scrub the kitchen floor for her. She was real pleased for me to scrub the floor. I was small but we all learned early to do many chores.....so I could scrub real good. My intent was if I scrubbed the floor, Cecil would let me stay in where the flooring was so cool. I would be out of the heat. It didn't turn out that way. When I finished scrubbing the floor Cecil opened screen door and pushed me out. Years later she explained if she had let me stay in, all the children would want in....she always liked to keep things in order.....with 6 children...we could have torn the house apart. We laugh about this incident yet today.

A CHILDHOOD DISEASE Written by Mabel Shifflett West Jan 1999

When I was 3 or 4 yrs old I had encephalitis. This is what my family told me along with a few bits and pieces that I faintly remember. Mabel West

My mom told me she discovered something very wrong when she tried and tried to wake me one morning. They must have summoned the Dr. in from Elkton and this Dr. referred them to a specialist in Harrisonburg, VA. Papa took me from our home near Beldor in horse and buggy to Harrisonburg. Diagnosis: Sleeping Sickness.....encephalitis. Dr. indicated the cause was a fly had evidently bitten or stung me causing infection in my blood stream. This disease affects the brain (NOW YOU KNOW WHY) causing other symptoms also. Mama said the Dr. ordered that I be walked in as much sunshine as possible. She said that previous to this disease I had been very chunky. In thecourse of time I wasted away. Mom's hand was bigger than my hand is now...but she said she could span my leg above my knee with her 3rd finger and thumb. Skin was like stretched over the bone. The Dr. ordered that she feed me eggs and cream. I have faint rememberance of setting on my rock in front of spring box while she filled my little glass with cream for me to drink one time. Mom said she would put table knives in pan of cold water, sit me on bench and tell me to dry the knives. Reaching into the water kept me awake. She dare not let me lie down during day, fearing if I went to sleep I could go into a coma. When she put me to bed, she feared always......would she be able to wake me up in the morning?
Grace told me they had to lead me and treat me as a blind child for one year. Evidently, when I did open my eyes, is when the Dr. ordered the two different shades of glasses.....one was amber and one was blue. I still have the glasses.

Papa took me numbers of times for tests in Harrisonburg. This was a long trip. I faintly remember one time we had got to Elkton when Papa told me if I wouldn't give the Dr. a hard time he would stop and buy me a pretty little hat. He hitched Ol nance to hitching post.....bought the hat......I remember nothing after that.
According to medical history this disease could be fatal. The good Lord must have given wisdom to mama to know how to care for me, and papa's love and compassion to take me the long distance many times to Harrisonburg for the medical care. Mama never did tell me I was blind....Grace told me this. Do not know why for the glasses except maybe to protect my eyes from light. I believe to this day, the reason for the weak feeling in my eyes...from school days thru life is due to the effect of this disease. Eye exam in 1998 by Dr. Cynthia Bradford.....she told me 3 times....you are a miracle. Is it any wonder I have a cholesteral problem....being fed a diet of eggs and cream. In 1945....Dr. orders for irritable bowel syndrome......eat raw eggs and cream!!

================

Mom told me another story during Nov 1999 when we were reviewing the 1900 Rockingham Co census for the Swift Run area. We got to the name George Wyant and his wife Belle. Mom said she remembered them and their kids Geo, John, and Lucy. But most of all she remembered that Belle evidently lost her mind. One day she left her house, ran through the fields jumping and leaping over fences. She remembers that George, her husband, couldn't catch her, so they called for Alex, and maybe others to help catch her and bring her back to the house.

===============

Mom related this story to me on Sat, 13Sep2008: Sometime in the late 1920's Eva Lawson (the school teacher at Roadside School) came to visit our house. Eva lived with Jake and Annie Herring. The Herrings quite often provided the local school teacher a place to stay. When Eva came, my mom (Myrtie and maybe Cecil and Grace had gone to Grandpa Charles Davis' house. Alex was out working somewhere. Owen thought he would do a nice thing and build a fire in the fireplace in the living room for Eva. After the fire was going, at some point Owen either saw fire coming out of the chimney or somehow he felt like the chimney was on fire. While Eva was in the room, Owen climbed up a ladder by the chimney and onto the roof. Dennis and me brought buckets of water from the creek and handed them to Owen up the ladder who poured them down the chimney. When they got back into the house.... you couldn't believe the mess all over the living room floor. Also, Eva was wearing white socks or stockings which were now heavily spotted in black soot. As far as mom remembers, when Myrtie and/or Alex got home they were not too upset at the event. Mom said, "Eva could have went home and not stayed in the house".

TOMBSTONES STOP CAR FROM PLUNGING INTO PA. RESTAURANT
By BRIAN J COUTURIER, Staff Writer, Waynesboro, PA

WAYNESBORO, Pa. - A visit to a hillside cemetery could have sent an 89 year old mourner to his death Friday afternoon when a runaway car struck the Waynesboro man, police said.
Wilmer Shifflett, 89, of 111 mt. Airy ave., was run down by his own 1980 ford while visiting his wife’s grave at Burns Hill Cemetery, Waynesboro Police said.
Shifflett reported that he was trapped halfway underneath the car for about 90 minutes before a man walking a dog discovered the accident. Shifflett was treated for a chest injury and released after observation at Waynesboro Hospital, police and a hospital spokeswoman said.
The accident, discovered at 4:52 p.m., could have been catastrophic if the car had continued its course, police said.
The cemetery, located on a hill above Pa. Rt. 16 near downtown, is across the street from the McDonald’s and Pizza Hut restaurants in Waynesboro. “Those tombstones stopped the car or it would have been McDonald’s” Waynesboro Patrolman Lynn Lowman said. It would have been an ugly scene.” The road, also known as East Main Street, is usually very busy with bumper-to-bumper traffic at a nearby signal in the late afternoon. Several tombstones stopped the car from leaving the cemetery, police said. If those tombstones weren’t there I would still be out there investigating,” Lowmann said.
Police said Shifflett was lucky to have survived and credited the tombstones for averting disaster. He would have been killed and there would have been a lot of people injured if the tombstones hadn’t stopped the car, Lowman said.
Shifflett, who could not be reached for comment, was placing flowers on his wife’s grave when the car, which had been left running, began to back down the hill. Shifflett ran after the car in an attempt to stop it and apparently was dragged along. The car glanced off one tombstone and hit several others before stopping after travelling about 400 feet, police said. Shifflett ended up underneath although it appears the car did not roll over his body. The car, an automatic, was found with its gearshift in reverse, police said.
