Notes
a. Note:   John Philip Sheets was born 9-27-1767 in Pennsylvania and baptized 1767 at Boehm`s Evangelical Reformed Church in Bluebell, Pennsylvania. His sponsors were Philip Schineberger and wife. Philip moved from the Pennsylvania colony to Augusta County, Virginia with his parents while he was a boy. He would have been old enough to help and this trip was probably the source of many stories told to his children and grandchildren. Philip died in 1853 in Augusta County, Virginia. When he died, Philip`s granddaughter, Elizabeth Landes Hulvey and her family were living with him.
  His wife was Catherine Cupp. Catherine was born 1769 in Pennsylvania and died 4-1-1853 of debility in Augusta County, Virginia. Philip preceded her in death by a few months. Catherine was the daughter of Marcus Cupp and Margaret. Philip and Catherine were married on 5-26-1791 in Augusta County, Virginia.
  Philip received 142 acres of land from his father. Philip is listed in the 1800 Augusta County, Virginia census with one male over 21 and 3 horses. Philip and Catherine were listed in the census records of Augusta County, Virginia for the years of 1810, 1820, 1830, 1840, and 1850. !information found in "The Shott Family" book found in the Family History

 AF has his work done in the Hawaii temple so I changed my dates to theirs.
 1850 Census of Augusta Virginia has him as 84 years old
  There is a John Sheets who married an Ennity Bright 1790 and his bondsman was a George Sheets. I don't know if this is our John Sheets but it fits his age and relationship. This record was found in the Rockingham County marriages.
