I am attempting to find out who the father of Jemima SHOPPELL was.
Jemima was born on February 15, 1879 in Indiana. She presumably resided in
the Jackson or Jennings township area of Owen County, Indiana. She should
appear in the 1880 census records, but she does not. She married Albert
JONES during the year of 1896 in Owen County, the date is illegible in the
records. Albert was born in May of 1872. I am also attempting to find out
who the parents of Albert were. I believe that his parents were Elijah Jones
and Christina Shoppell, but that is simply due to process of elimination
rather then facts.
Albert & Jemima had the following children in Owen County.
Cecil Ruth on 6-5-1896 married Reginald Ransom GRABLE
Tina Bell on 1-18-1900 married Urvan ANDERSON
Mabel on 1-30-1904
Arthur on 4-17-1906
Ivan on 10-21-1910 married Alpha J. HUTSELL
Ellen E. on 11-2-1914 d. 8-26-1915
Jemima must have died shortly after the birth of the last child as her stone
reads 11- 12-1914. Albert died on 12-8-1947. They are both buried in the
Cunot Cemetery.
