Schumate Family

Submitted by Jim Burgess


SHUMATE FAMILY IN STAFFORD, PRINCE WILLIAM AND FAUQUIER COUNTY, VIRGINIA

This web site is on the SHUMATE Family of Fauquier County, Virginia. The SHUMATE family has a huge posterity, for that reason we will only post SHUMATE families that stayed in Fauquier County, Virginia. When they leave the county we will not post more information on that family. We will post the email addresses below the family name that researcher is related to. In that way we can continue to share information.

We shall ever be indebted to Robert S. RILEY for his monumental work. This book is available from McDowell Publications. Every serious SHUMATE researcher must have a copy of this work.

I have not made a study of the SHUMATE family. I have chosen this family as a beginning and example on what can be done to organize the families of Fauquier County. I realize that this may not work, but want to try something instead of doing nothing. It is my hope that you will feel free to correct data and send sources of information. Please refer to the number before the individual's name when writing. I am also updating and adding the names of people that have sent emails which I did not know how to answer. I hope this will solve the challenge. Thanks Jim Burgess

Family of Daniel SHUMATE & Sarah Ann JAMES

1b. Daniel SHUMATE II was born about 1730 in Stafford County, Virginia. We have not identified the first wife of Daniel SHUMATE. Daniel married Sarah Ann Daniel SHUMATE as his second wife. Daniel died about Feb 1806 in Fauquier County, Virginia.
Some have sugessted that the surname of his wives may have been JAMES or SUDDOTH. Does any one have information on his first wife?
Thanks to Molly SHUMATE and Marion Ledgerwood who help understand Daniel SHUMATE and his marriages.

It is evident that Daniel married SARAH ANN CORNWELL, widow of PETER CORNWELL, sometimes after the death of her former husband (about 1776) and before the May Court of 1778 of Fauquier County. Peter Cornwell's will, dated 2 June 1776, mentioned his "beloved wife, SARAH ANN", and his children: daughter Mary; son Daniel; son Jacob; son Simon; son Jarvice. He appointed his wife, SARAH ANN, Executrix and his son SIMON and Mr. William HUNTON, Executors. This will was probated 26 August 1776. (Fauquier County WB I, p. 293-295.

When Court was held on 26 May 1778 in Fauquier County, it was ordered that SARAH ANN SHUMATE, late widow of Peter Cornwell, deceased, receive her dower in the land and slaves, and also a child's part of the personal estate left by PETER CORNWELL. JOHN CORNWELL and SIMON CORNWELL, sons of Peter, objected by Andrew Buchanan their attorney. But the court overruled the objection. (Fauquier County Minute Book (1773-1780), p. 321)

The next year, on 24 May 1779 in Fauquier County Court, we find this entry: "John CORNWELL, Daniel SHUMATE and Simon CORNWELL came into Court and (produced bond) in the sums following...John CORNWELL 500 pounds, Daniel SHUMATE and Simon CORNWELL two hundred and fifty pounds each...to be void on condition the said John CORNWELL be of good behaviour towards all citizens of the said Commonwealth for twelve months." (Fauquier County Minute Book *1773-1780, p. 380).

Sarah Ann was second wife of Daniel Shumate. I do not believe she was SARAH ANN JAMES as von Stuaffenberg and Mr. Riley say. Of course alot of what Riley says, he took from von Stauffenberg's genealogy of the Shumate family and then added his own. Molly SHUMATE
