Samuel C Shapleigh of Massachusetts United States was born on July 20, 1851 in Lebanon, ME, and died at age 68 years old on February 9, 1920 in Ashburnham, MA.
I have an old studio photograph of S. C. SHAPLEIGH which was taken at the Charles A. Meinerth Studio in Newburyport, MA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870’s or 1880’s with Mr. SHAPLEIGH likely in his 30’s at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to determine that this is a photograph of Samuel C. SHAPLEIGH and gathered the following information regarding Samuel and his family:
Samuel C. SHAPLEIGH was b. 20 Jul 1851 in West Lebanon, ME to parents Charles SHAPLEIGH (1811-1881) and Elizbeth Jackson CORBETT (1817-1899). Samuel was one of 12 children born to this couple including Sarah Elizabeth; Charles Waldron; Helen Perry; Henry Clay; Mary Corbett; Frances Augusta; Phebe Ricker; Samuel; Nancy Corbett; Ida Belle or Idabelle; Edna Waldron; and Harriette or Harriet Louise SHAPLEIGH, all born between 1839 and 1861.
Samuel married twice, first to Luella Laverne LORD (1857-1909) on 2 Oct 1879 in Lebanon, ME and they had 6 children Elizabeth Lord; Lena Florence; Marion Louise; 2 Baby Boys; and Baby Girl SHAPLEIGH, all born between 1881 and 1899. Samuel married Anne or Ann “Annie” Maria or Mariah POTTER BAIRD (1852-1935) on 29 Apr 1911 in Worcester, MA. Samuel was a farmer and died 9 Feb 1920 in Ashburnham, MA and is buried in the New Cemetery in Ashburnham.
I would like to get this photograph to a family member and appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley
