John Shepherd's parents
I have run across several files which say that Isaac and Sarah (Cheney) Shepherd were the parents of John Shepherd, but I believe that info is wrong. I first ran across the info on this website many years ago: Rootsweb-Harrison LaTour
Since this keeps coming up again and again, and is being passed on as hints on various genealogy sites, I did some research and here is what I have found.
I looked up Isaac Shepard: wikitree.com/wiki/Shepard-1005
I am still looking for John Shepherd's real parents. Please correct this mistake in your own trees. Thank you.
