4) Jefferson "Sheffey" Shutters:
   born 1817; 
   died 07 Jan 1867; cause of death: "related to war" (18 months after discharge)
   Civil War - Union; pension papers filed by Sheffey's son Marshall
   papers regarding Jefferson's estate
   married Sarah E Shutters* on 03 ___ 1853 Jefferson City, Cole, MO 
             (born Aug 1838 IN; 
             died 16 Apr 1901; obituary; cause of death: pneumonia;
             buried Crown Point Cemetery, Kokomo, Howard, IN - unmarked; ; 
             daughter of Matthias Shutters and Nancy Thomas)

    Note: We have various documents regarding land transactions by Matthias Andis (Sheffey Shutters's grandfather) and his heirs. They include purchase, sale and distribution of land in Washington Co, VA. These are very important documents to our research, as they conclusively tie Matthias, his children, and his grandchildren together.

       * Sarah E Shutters is also found here

                Note: In the 1900 Federal census, Sarah states she has had 5 children (2 living).  
                   The living children are Marshall E Shutters and Frank Roswell.  One of the non-living children is 
                   David H P Shutters (born c.1859).  At this time we cannot account for the other 2 children and 
                   are unable to determine whether they are Shutters or Roswell children.
