Shiflets in Missouri
      Census Records & Map


In Missouri, at least two branches of the Shiflets converged: those from Kentucky who had left Virginia more than 30 years earlier and Shiflets coming directly from Virginia.



NOTE: This information is incomplete. If anyone has copies of the MO census listing these Shiflets, please e-mail the info to me and I will add it in.
