    Generation: 3

    1. 6.  (George) Abraham Wintermute was born on 13 Nov 1784 in Sussex County, New Jersey (son of George Wintermute and Nancy\Anna Arason); died on 23 Aug 1848 in Elizabethtown, Licking County, Ohio; was buried in 1848 in Buried with wife in Elizabethtown Cemetery.

      (George) married Elizabeth Shackelton on 28 Feb 1810 in Sussex County, New Jersey. Elizabeth (daughter of Benjamin Shackelton and Mary Ogden) died on 6 Sep 1864 in Elizabethtown, Licking County, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


    2. 7.  Elizabeth Shackelton (daughter of Benjamin Shackelton and Mary Ogden); died on 6 Sep 1864 in Elizabethtown, Licking County, Ohio.

      Notes:

      In the Windemuth Family Heritage it states " Elizabeth Shackelton was a grand-daughter of Thomas and Nancy Robbins of England who were persons of considerable note. He was a man of letters and she was a lady in every sense of the word,
      according to the standard of the time and place. Nancy Robbins wore the finest silks, purple and crimson corsets, and never on any occasion was known to engage in manual labor. When Elizabeth was married at age 18 she spread upon the grass
      100 yards of fine white linen, the work of her own hands. Her mother-in-law then remarked to her, "Elizabeth, was it possible that you made all this linen yourself?""

      It is more likely that Elizabeth was a GREAT granddaughter of the Robbins, and her mother Mary Ogden was their granddaughter.

      Children:
      1. 3. Mary Jane Wintermute was born on 10 Jul 1808; died on 28 Apr 1891 in Pennsylvania.

      5. Eliza Wintermute was born on 12 Jan 1823 in Fayettte County, Pennsylvania; died on 30 Jun 1899 in brother Alfred's Newark, Ohio home.
      6. Sarah Wintermute was born on 14 Aug 1827; died on 24 Sep 1867 in Marysville.
      7. Alfred Wintermute was born on 25 Mar 1825 in Fayette County, Pennsylvania.

    1. 12.  George Wintermute was born on 8 Jul 1748 (son of The Emigrator Johann Georg Windemuth and Johanna Margaretha Elizabetha Bernhardten); died on 8 Jan 1837; was buried in 1837 in Buried in Redstone Baptist Church cemetery.

      Notes:

      T. Michael Louden has written:

      "I have found the grave of George Wintermute and check the tombstone against the book. George is buried between the graves of Mary Wintermute and Ashfordby Wintermute (his son). Who is Mary Wintermute? The stone is very faded marble but
      looks like it says:

      "Mary

      wife of

      ?A? Wintermute

      died

      ?1? Jan 181?4?

      Aged 5????..."

      rest is unreadable but is shaped like the rest of age and a quote of some sort in smaller print as was the style at the time. The are no grave markers either side of these three or in front or behind. I assume these are filled graves but
      without current markers. If I assume that Mary is a previously undocumented wife of Ashfordby it raises the question of why they were not buried adjacent to one another instead of with a space between them where George is buried 10 years
      later.



      Any ideas on who Mary "wife of Wintermute" is?

    4. 15.  Mary Ogden was born in 1758 (daughter of Gabriel Ogden and Mary Shotwell); died on 19 May 1838.

      Notes:

      Tradition says this (Mrs) Mary Shackelton (whose maiden name was Mary Ogden), the second wife, was very proud; that when dressed for church she would wrap herself in a sheet to avoid contact with her husband while on the way, fearing he
      would disarrange her toilet. She would array him in ruffles, a cocked hat and knee breeches, a costume he was unused to, and take him into distinguished society. This marriage was said not to have been pleasant or congenial, and a
      separation occurred.



      She had eight children by her former husband, Shackelton, named as follows: Sarah, Lydia, Elizabeth, John, Mary, Rachel, Robert, and Benjamin. They lived between Blairstown and Hope. Mary, their mother, died May 19, 1830, and was buried
      near her residence in a cemetery close by a brick school house. Arason's widow says she understands Shackelton's name to have been Benjamin, and that he died previous to the birth of his youngest son, who was named for him on that account.

      1. Sarah Shackelton was born on 29 Aug 1785; died on 16 Jan 1818.
