Good evening,

We are looking for information on Heber (Eber) Sheppard. He was born in or around 1889 and baptized in 1890 and his guardians were potentially Samuel Sheppard and Mary Ann Dowden.

We are looking for his birth family or information on his birth, as his record on the Cupid's Methodist church records seem to be illegitimate.

Thanks,

Lindsay Sheppard

Hi Lindsay,
I don't know if there is a connection here, or not; but the name Heber is very uncommon. There was Heber Sheppard who lived on the west coast at Mount Moriah (Curling), but he would have been born perhaps around 1910, or so. He is deceased now I would suspect. The name being so unusual that the 'Heber' here could possibly be related to the person you seek, maybe his son?
Cheers
Greg
