    Notes 
    • 1850 U.S. Census Jefferson county Iowa, Cedar Township, shows a George Shelly, with wife Cathereine children George, Jesse, and Catherine, all of whom would match the age stats for the 1840 census of a George Shelly in Hancock Ill. Listed right above Michael Shelly and a William Shelly. The William Shelly would match the stats for age of himself and wife

      1830 McDonough Count Ill. Census looks like George Shelly with the same children 10 years younger!!!
