Sheckles;OH,IA,MO,KY,1840-1896
Names often change over the generations and maybe this is what happened to our Sheckles, Shackles, Schickel etc.The areas you are researching do seem to fit into our pattern.I am able to research and find information on their lives in the state of WA, OR, CA.Family story says that John H. and Anna Gene Sheckles Goddard lived in IA where their children were born.Family story also says that Anna was born in IA to Wilson Sheckles and Sarah Lucile Wilson,and when she was 2years old they returned to OH.Anna and John were married in St Louis1881.John was a methodist preacher (a letter from WA confirms this).The children were named Lena, b 1882 and may have died as a child, Fred Arthur Wilson b 1884, Charles b 1886 d 1888 and Harry Milton b 1888. I am unable to find any info in IA that shows the family lived there.This is such a mystery and I am in hopes maybe the sir name is missed spelled and you have some lead.Thank you Beth
