Came to Galena, Ill., in 1839, and worked there until the Spring of 1840, came up the Black River to what was then known as O'Neill's Creek, but which has since been changed to Perry Creek. Here he worked at the lumber business and in the Summer of 1842 built a saw-mill on Squaw Creek, remaining there over thirty years, during which time he built fifteen sawmills and two grist-mills on Black River. Mr. Sheppard is a member of the M. E. Church and was married in Rock Island Co., Ill., to Miss Arminda Pierson; she was born in Pennsylvania, March, 1828. They have three children—Elizabeth, now Mrs. Albert Snow, residing at Le Claire, Iowa ; Mary A., now Mrs. Smock, of Davis Ferry, Black River, and Andrew W., still living at home. They have lost four children — Jeremiah, Susanna, Arminda and May.
