| Notes |
- William Shackelford, son of Henry, Sr., and his wife, Mary, was born in King William County, Va., in
1759. He was a Revolutionary war soldier, and according to his own statements in his pension petition, he went from King William County to Caroline, from Caroline to Powhatan, and from there to Montgomery
County, and still later to Henry County.
He was married twice, but the identity of either of his wives is not known, but one of them was named
Tabitha and the other one was Mary, as we see by the following records:
Tabitha Shackelford, wife of William, relinquished her right of dower in a tract of land, July 1806, Order
Book 8, page 89.
William Shackelford and his wife, Mary, sold land to Joseph Martin, December 16, 1807. The land and
both men of Henry County. Deed Book 7, page 122.
This had to be William, Sr., as William, Jr. was born 1801, so he would have been but five and six -
correction --five or six years of age.
We do not know how many children William Shackelford had, but we find mention of the following:
William Shackelford, for love and affection for his daughter Harriet, deeded her a slave, October 24, 1834. Deed Book 11, page 466.
William Shackelford, Sr., for love and affection for his son William Shackelford, Jr., deeded a slave to him, April 18, 1837. Deed Book 12, page 225.
And from the marriage and other records we find that William Shackelford had no less than seven children, and since Tabitha appears to have been his first wife, she was probably mother of most, if not all, of them. They were as follows:
George William---------------(married first ??
(married second, Sophia Lamkin)
Harriet-----------------------(maried Duke Price)
Jane--------------------------(married ??
Lucy-------------------------(married James B. Toney)
Elizabeth---------------------(married Gabriel Stultz)
Sally------------------------- (married James Glass)
Mary-------------------------(married Drewry Pulliam)
We are of the opinion that there were others but these are all that we have the names of. And we do not
have their order of birth. But it would appear that Harriet was the youngest, as she never married until
1837. Duke Price and Harriet M. Shackelford were married--marriage bond dated December 11, 1837. And that is all the information we have of her family.
