I am new to the list (and Shackelford research) and I've been working on my family genealogy for almost six years now (since grandma died and I  inherited her file). Some call it a hobby, but in my case (as in most) I have found my  obsession!!

The Shackelfords I'm looking for information on are:

Generation No. 1

1. Strother Henry1 Shackelford was born Bet. 1810 - 1825. He married Anne Edwards.

Child of Strother Shackelford and Anne Edwards is:

2 i. William Henry2 Shackelford, born November 20, 1845 in Stafford Co, VA; died December 15, 1919 in Stafford Co, VA At home of son John Lymon.

Generation No. 2

2. William Henry2 Shackelford (Strother Henry1) was born November 20, 1845 in Stafford Co, VA, and died December 15, 1919 in Stafford Co, VA At home of son John Lymon. He married Miranda Anne Musselman September 06, 1875 in Stafford Co, VA Ramoth church, (First couple to be married at Ramoth Baptist Church. Ceremony performed by Rev.
