hi johnny if you want to find his date check in spartanburg s.c in the kenndey room and you will find the date of his birth and record of his death. and you can also find wiley drayton o'shields and samuel drayton o'shields as all those that i have posted but as i have already stated william paschal they were at least 2 william paschal o'shields one was born in pickens and one was born in spartanburg s.c.. one died in pickens in about 1880. they get these mixed up because they both lived in pickens s.c. as william paschal o'shields moved in 1857 at the age of 33 years of age. but anyway johnny you have been a big help to me and i thank you for your help.
