| 5291 | Robert S. Riley estimates John Shumates's birth year as 1793 in Fauquier County, Virginia before his parents, John and Sarah (Preston) Shumate moved to Kentucky. | Shumate, John (I3870)
|
| 5292 | Robert S. Riley estimates William Shumate's birth as about 1793 and the place as Fauquier County, Virginia since he believed William was probably born before his parents, John and Sarah (Preston) Shumate moved to Kentucky. However, I believe that his birth date is closer to the 1800 date given in the census records which also enters his place of birth as Kentucky. I base this on the fact that he bought land close to John B. and Catherine (Shumate) Cline in Vermilion County, Illinois and moved there from Kentucky around the same time that they did. | Shumate, William (I3871)
