I am not researching this family, I found at the LDS office and thought
I would post to the site.

Randolph County, Indiana
Surnames: Shultz, Moore, Thornburg, Peacock, Burkett
The Shultzes
Peter M. Shultz married Julia Moore from the neighborhood of Spartansburg
in the year 1853. He acquired his first land in the Jericho neighborhood
in the year 1866, this being in S29 R1SE, thus putting him in close proximity
to Isaac Thornburg. Peter Shultz had four children: Will, Martha Alice,
Charley, and Cal. These names are all familiar at Jericho. Will Shultz
and his children were members of the Jericho Meeting. He and his wife,
Cora, are buried in the burying-ground. Martha Alice married Thomas Clarkson
Peacock and lived a half mile south of the present Meeting-house. Charley
Shultz lived a mile east and a mile north of the Meeting-house. Cal Shuitz
taught school for many years both at Jericho and at Harrisville. Clyde
Shultz, grandson to Peter M., is still a resident of the neighborhood as
well as Bertha Burkett, a granddaughter.
