Robert Shipley & Sarah Rachel Dorsey of Maryland
My records show that George Shipley was the son of Robert Shipley (born 9 Oct 1713 in Howard county, MD) and Sarah Rachael Dorsey (born 17 Sep 1717 in MD). Robert and Sarah married in MD in the 1730s. Robert Shipley died ca 1789 in NC. Son George (born ca 1760 in MD) was married on 5 May 1783 in Mecklenburg county, NC, to Elizabeth McCord (born ca 1763 in VA). George Shipley died before 1829 in Allen county, KY. The book "Shipleys of Maryland" shows George as a child of Robert but no documentation is shown or stated as a footnote. I need additional documentation proving the parental relationship between Robert and Sarah Shipley and their son George Shipley. I am hoping someone has such documentation, or can direct me to a place or person who might. I need this documentation for a SAR (Sons of the American Revolution) application.
