6003 William Shumate (II). He was born on 11 August 1756 in Overwharton Parish, Stafford County, Virginia, and died circa 1789 in Albemarle or Fauquier County, Virginia. William (II) is believed to have married Elizabeth Lee circa 1776 in Albemarle County. His widow Elizabeth and son Daniel (VIII) appear in the 1789 Personal Property Tax List of Fauquier County (see page C-7, Appendix C._ Following the death of her husband, Elizabeth is believed to have returned with her children to Albemarle County where the children lived and grew to maturity. Their father, William Shumate (II), enlisted as a private in the Albemarle County Militia on 10 August 1776 shortly after the Revolutionary War began and later served in the Valley Forge and New Jersey campaigns of 1777-1778 as a member of the 6th Ranger Company which was commanded by Captain Thomas Blackwell and which at times was passed to the 7th, 12th, and 17th Continental Line Regiments of Virginia (see page C-46, Appendix C). The name of son Peyton (I) is listed in the 1802-03 tax lists of Albemarle County and the 1810 Federal Census of Frederick County (See pages C-2 and D-3, Appendixes C and D). Approximately 1816, Elizabeth and children migrated with son Peyton (I) and his family to Bourbon County, Kentucky. Circa 1818, Peyton and family removed in Nicholas County, and Elizabeth and her younger children settled in Bath County. Commencing that year, their names began to appear in the Personal Property Tax Lists of the two counties (see pages H-1, H-2, and H-32 through H-35, Appendix H). In 1823, Elizabeth died and left her Nuncupative Will which was recorded in the Bath County Court (See page H-52, Appendix H_. In her Will, she identified by name her younger children Willia, Hiram, Eliza, and Lydia and made reference to her married daughters (unnamed). The will did not mention her older sons Daniel (VIII_ and Peyton (I). T.F. van Stauffenberg erred in identifying the children of William (II) and Elizabeth Shumate by either omitting or confusing them as the issue of William Shumate (III) and Bailey Shumate (I).
The issue of William Shumate (II) and his wife Elizbeth (Lee) as identified by T.F. von Stauffenberg and official documentation are discussed under the subtopic entitled Fifth Generation.

William J. Long was born in Ohio February 24, 1838. At the age of twelve years he with his mother came to Illinois and has resided here a true and devoted Christian until his death, which occurred February 17, 1915, at the age of 76 years, 11 months and 17 days.

Cromwell of Georgetown, Ill; Charles E., of Danville; Herbert, of Boulder; Oscar O., of Pearland, Texas, and Harry D. Long of Danville, Ill. There are also twenty grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. In 1861 he enlisted in the army in Company C., 22d Ohio Infantry. In 1892 his wife preceded him to the great beyond. Then in 1893 he was married to Sarah J. Swisher, whom with his two stepchildren survive, namely Wanda E. Long and Donald Swisher, and Elva Butler of Mattoon, Ill. He was a kind and loving companion and father. Just a few days ago he sang "When the Storm of Life is O'er," and repeated the "Lord's prayer." He was willing and ready to go to the home our Savior had prepared for him. His daughter Mary and son Harry were with him when the end came.

Judge William P Springgate, farmer, was born in Mercer County, Ky., in 1816, and is the son of William Springgate, a native of the same county, who removed to St. Louis County, Mo., in 1822, and from there to Greene County, Ill., in 1887, where he died in 1868. He was a soldier in the War of 1812, and a farmer and wagon-maker by occupation. The mother's maiden name was Gritten; her father was a Revolutionary soldier, and immigrated from Virginia to Kentucky soon after the War for Independence. He and his wife walked the distance on foot, and carried all their possessions on their backs. They were among the early settlers, and he was a familiar companion to the celebrated Daniel Boone, and lived to the ripe old age of one hundred and fourteen years. William P. lost his mother when about two years old, and remained with his father until grown, receiving but a limited common-school education, which he walked a distance of three miles to obtain. He was married in St. Louis County, Mo., in 1838, to Miss Ann, daughter of Joseph and Rebecca Sullins. To this union were born three children, two now living: Amanda, wife of Richard Zumwalt, of Osage County, and Marcelus. Mr. Springgate lost his wife in 1854, and two years later he married Miss Sarah, sister of his first wife. Five children were the result of this marriage, four now living, viz.: William, Ferdinand, Sterling and Virginia. In 1844, previous to the death of his first wife, our subject removed to Franklin County, and located twelve miles southeast of New Haven. In 1864 he came to New Haven, and has since made that city his home. He has made farming his chief occupation, and in it has been successful. In 1854 he was elected county judge and re-elected in 1858. In 1862 he declined a renomination, but in 1866 was elected to the same and served one term, and was afterward appointed to fill an unexpired term, making nearly sixteen years' service in all. He has since served as marshal of the city of New Haven, for four years. He was reared a Whig, and his first presidential vote was for Gen. Harrison, in 1840, but some time prior to the war identified himself permanently with the Democratic party. He is a prominent church member, and his wife belongs to the Methodist Episcopal Church South. Mr. Springgate's father settled in St. Louis County when the city of St. Louis was a mere French hamlet, and he distinctly remembers when there was but one brick building in the place, and that but one story, and an inferior affair altogether. Comparatively few men have lived as long in the State as has Mr. Springgate, he having been an inhabitant of the State since he was about six years old, or for about sixty-five years.
