    Notes:

    Leo van de Pas's site has Sarah Sheldon's parents as Isaac Sheldon III and Elizabeth Pratt, and Isaac Sheldon III's parents as Isaac Sheldon Jr. and Sarah Warner. His citation is Gary Boyd Roberts' 1984 book American Ancestors and Cousins of the Prince of Wales. Roberts is a highly respected genealogist, but I literally can't find anyone else who agrees with this. It's still possible, of course, that Roberts is right and the absence of this extra generation is simply one of those gross errors that gets endlessly repeated in online genealogies.

    Unfortunately, van de Pas doesn't give dates for any of these people, and I'm guessing (based on Roberts's 600 Immigrants, etc, which I own) that this is because Roberts' book doesn't either. If I find a source with plausible dates that includes the extra generation, I'll be inclined to revisit the question.

Her death in Steubenville was also mentioned in the Hartford Times on 19 Mar 1853.

    There is a Find a Grave entry for a Mary Sheldon with no dates at all, only the information that she was buried at Union Cemetery in Steubenville. (This is not the entry for her daughter Mary Sheldon McDowell.) Perhaps it refers to this Mary Sheldon, who did die in Steubenville. But this Mary died in 1853, and the cemetery's web site says it was founded in 1854.

  1. 27.  Spencer Phelps Descendancy chart to this point (22.Spencer7, 17.Martha6, 12.Sarah5, 7.Sarah4, 3.Daniel3, 2.Mary2, 1.Robert1) was born on 24 May 1782 in Chesterfield, Hampshire, Massachusetts; died on 11 Sep 1865 in Mentor, Lake, Ohio.

    Notes:

    Fought in the War of 1812.

    Spencer Phelps (1782-1865) appears in most online genealogies as a son of Spencer Phelps (1753-1829) by his second wife Theodomy Allen (1755-1841). But the older Spencer's first wife Naomi Clark died in 1784. If the younger Spencer was born in 1782, his mother was Naomi Clark, not Theodomy Allen.

    Evidence:

    Massachusetts, Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988 shows Naomi Clark born 4 Oct 1753 in Northampton, Massachusetts, daughter of Ezra and Martha Clark.

    Massachusetts, Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988, "CLARK, NAOMI of Northampton, Intention of marriage to Spencer Phelps, published March 19, 1781."

    Massachusetts, Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988 shows Spencer Phelps born 24 May 1782 in Chesterfield, Massachusetts (just outside Northampton), son of Spencer Phelps and Naomi.

    This headstone at Bridge Street Cemetery, Northampton, Massachusetts, of "Mrs. Naomi Phelps Wife of Mr. Spencer Phelps who died May 25 1784 In the 31st Year of her life".
