From an article Ravenna, Ohio 1874:
Extracted from The Democratic Press, Ravenna (Portage County), Ohio, Thursday, July 9, 1874, Page 2, Column 5: About the first of May, Samuel Shively and wife made his advent into this goodly city, and took up his abode. On Wednesday last, a brother-in-law, who, it seems, was bound to him by a two-fold bond or relationship,, presented himself to constable Trail, and gave him a photograph of his interesting relative, and requested him to lay upon him the hand of the law. Mr. Trail soon had him in charge, when upon a hearing the following facts were elicited:
Samuel Shively is a native of Westmoreland county, Pa., was born of poor but honest parents, and when he had come to years of maturity, gave his hand and his heart to Susannah Henry. They lived in peace and harmony until their home was blessed with four little Shivelies. A couple of years since the Shivelies removed to Tiffin, this State, taking with them a sister of Mrs. Shively's. During these two years Mr. Shively, became convinced that he could make a better wife of his sister-in-law then he could out of Susannah. So on the 20th of April last, leaving Mrs. Shively and all of the little Shivelies in Tiffin, he departed with Miss Henry, junior, for Dayton, where he obtained the legal documents which would enable him to confer upon Miss Henry the honorable distinction of being known as Mrs. Shively No. 2. But "man proposes &c", and Mr. Z. Henry, a brother-in-law of this too much married man, heard of the state of affairs, and traced the happy couple to Alliance, where he had him arrested on a charge of bigamy. He was bound over to answer in $500.
Pennsylvania death certificates were located. For Samuel Shively he was born 11-Oct-1842 in Pennsylvania, a son of Jacob Shively and (unknown) Kepple. Samuel died in Westmoreland Co., PA. on 9-Jul-1909. He was buried in Hillside Cemetery, Westmoreland Co., His stone lists Samuel Shiebler 1842-1909, Co F 103 Pa Inf and wife, Mary M (1852-1924). The death certificate for Mary Shively states born Sep-1852, daughter of Frederick Henry and Liddy Eseman. Mary died 2-Apr-1924 in Westmoreland Co. The death certificate for the first wife of Samuel Shively was located and it would appear she married a second time to a Mr. Campbell.
