Description
Portrait of Vergie (Sheffler) Crabill with hair pinned up and hands in lap.
Vergie was the daughter of J.B. and Ann R. Sheffler. Her father was born in Pennsylvania and her mother in Maryland. In 1880, she appeared as a 1-year old with her family in the census for the Johnston District of Shenandoah County. They lived at the County House for the Poor because Virgie’s father was the County Superintendent of the Poor. She had five older siblings at the time.
