Notes
a. Note:   Ruth Shutz is the maiden name given in the death certificates of 4 of her children: James, Sarah, Dallas & Thomas. The first 2 and the last 2, thus all the children are Ruth's.
  Ruth and all the children are living in Moundsville, WV in 1880.
  7 of Ruth's 8 children are living in 1910. She is living alone.
 In 1920 she is living with her daughter Alice and her family.
  Ruth's age:
 1850 age 15 on 25 Nov
 1860 age 27 on 24 July, name may be Lathminda (poor image)
 1870 age 34 on 25 Aug
 1880 age 45 on 7 June
 1900 age not found
 1910 age 73 on 3 May
 1920 age 85 on 7 Jam
 1835 seems to be a better date for her birth than the 10 May 1833 as reported on the rootsweb files.
 Neither the birth or death records have been verified. The approximate dates agree with census records.
b. Note:   NF1925
Note:   Both John and Ruth were living in Monroe Co. in 1850 and in 1860.
