	Part XLI Pioneers Shelley and Quince Families Frances and Mary Jane (Shanberg) Shelley were natives of France, and members of the Catholic church. Mr. Shelley attended in Paris seven years, Mr. and Mrs. Francis Shelley were married in France and there in France were born seven children. Mary, Catherine, Mary Ann, Martha, Lovina, Henry and Victoria. Francis Jr., and Peter were born in this country. The family emigrated to America in 1831 and settled in Richland county. In 1840 the family came to Paulding county and entered 80 acres of land one mile north of Payne on north-east corner. They built their cabin where the home of Mr. Cox now stands. They lived there with their family until the death of Mr. Shelley, August 6 1866. Mrs. Emma Bodey a grand-daughter remembers hearing them tell of the roof blowing off the cabin one night. The parents and daughters slept downstairs in the small cabin and the sons in the loft. This night a man way-farer was a guest and the boys and guest were compelled to descend quickly in abbreviated costumes. While the parents remained faithful to the Catholic faith, the children later joined the United Brethren church.

	Part XLII Pioneers Shelley-Quince Families No doubt the presence of several French families in this section attracted Francis Quince to this Land of opportunity, but land of privation, want and hard toil, and "it was by faith they sojourned in this land of promise," not knowing of its future as the garden spot of Ohio. Some of our heroic pioneers lived to see the morning glint of the day of promise; others died not knowing or dreaming of the great future of this great country. Francis Quince was born in France, May 28, 1816. He came to this country when a young man and settled in Richland county, It was here that he married Catherine Shelley, daughter of Francis and Mary (Shanberg) Shelley, Feb. 13, 1842. She was born in France, Sept. 8, 1822. To Mr. and Mrs. Quince were born six children. Mary was born in Wayne county, Ohio, Nov. 1842, died May 1843. Solomon was born in Richland county, Nov. 5, 1845.

Mr. Quince came to Paulding county in 1856 and settled on the farm which is now owned by his grandson, Frank Radenbaugh. Here they lived exemplary lives true to their Catholic faith in which they raised their children. In their home the itenerant priest found a hearty welcome and performed his priestly offices. It was on one of these visits that Felicia Barbier now Mrs. Charles Pio was baptized. The children attended what was called the Wiltsie school which was located in the angle between the Paulding road and the Wiltsie cemetery road. The teachers were Mrs. Theodora Merchant, Dr. Cunningham and Aelac Kilpatrick. Mr. Quince was township trustee for six years; and treasurer one year. His death occurred July 8, 1879, aged 63 years.

He had his ax on his shoulder when struck by lightning; the ax acting as a conductor. The widow afterward became the wife of John Pearl to whom was born one son, Vinie Pearl. (Continued Next Week)
