    Notes 
    • As evidenced by his tombstone and several census records, John Shade was more than 16 years older than his wife Mary Berger. This suggests he was a widower when he married Mary.
      In the 1830 census, the first after he married Mary, John's household consisted of himself (age 40-49), his wife (age 20-29), a male child 15-19, a male child under 5, and two female children under 5. The children under 5 are consistent with the baptisms found for children of John and Mary. The young male could be a son from a prior marriage (or could be a farm hand or other relative).
      In the 1820 census, his household consists of himself (age 26-55), his wife (age 16-25), one male child under 10 and one female child under 10. One possibility is that this wife is Magdalena Seifrit, who married a John Shade in 1816 and was buried on the Strausstown cemetery in 1822. (note, John's children with Mary Berger were baptized at the Strausstown church starting in 1824.) This Magdalena was mother of several children, all of whom predeceased her, so she is not the mother of the unidentified boy in the 1830 census. The age difference between John and Magdalena (Seifrit) suggests he may have been a widower when he married Miss Seifrit and that the boy was a child of the prior marriage.
      Searching then for a 3rd marriage. We can exclude John Shade married Magdalena Schumacher in 1810, as this appears to be the John and Mary (Shoemaker) who are buried in Mifflin County, as evidenced by records of their several children who are also buried in Mifflin.
