Yes, Edmond and John Carney, two brothers, married two sisters. Jacob Shults did not
change his name to Shultz. The family still goes by Shults. Ellis Island did not exist
as a port for immigration until much later in America's history. Jacob Shults was
born about 1803 in Kentucky. His parents came from New York. Jacob Shults can be found on
the 1830 Census for Lincoln County, Missouri, the 1840 Rives County Census(Later called
Henry County, Missouri), the 1850 Crawford County, Missouri census, and the 1860 Dent
County census. The family researchers say he moved down to either Marion or Benton
County, Arkansas in the mid 1860's. We do not know his exact date of death or death
location.
