General Notes: Husband - John Shepherd


He was a native of England, and came to America with his parents at the age of five years, they settling in the Shenandoah Valley. Here the family were all massacred by the Indians except himself, who was taken prisoner and held for three years by the natives. He then found an opportunity of escaping and reached the vicinity of Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, where he spent the rest of his life.
