Misc. Notes
Later records list her birth in 1858, although she is listed as age 10 in 1870, and 21 in 1880 - leading me to believe she was born in 1859.

Indexed as Shippy in the 1880 census with her brother.

In 1910 they are listed by themselves, and in 1920 she is listed with her sister Sarah Beaty, both widowed age 61, OH.
