Message Board Post:
I have been doing some in-depth researching of the Sheets family trying to fill in a
portion of my maternal side of my family tree. I am a direct descendent of Phillip Sheets
of Clinton County through is grand-daughter, Ruth Ann Sheets Virgin. In my research, I
have identified two siblings, Samuel and Joseph, of Phillip along with his mother, Barbara
Lindamude Sheets.
The question that I have is that I have identified several other male Sheets in Carroll
County specifically: Anthony (b. 1800), Arten (b. unk), George (b. 1790), and Hillary (b.
1815). I am curious if they were additional siblings of Phillip or possible cousins. I
would appreciate if anyone has additional information or possibly point me in the right
direction. I suspect that Hillary was a son of George via the 1840 census but have no
definitive proof of this suspicion.
In addition, does anyone know where these individuals are buried in Carroll County. I read
a really old post from 2001 that had Hillary buried Enoch cemetery but I cant find such a
cemetery listed for Carroll County.
thanks,
Brent
