This site was created by Larry Shively who is researching the history of the Shively families. The goal is to have a site where all Shively researchers can share and ask questions in regards to their Shively lines. The largest majority of the Shively family records are located in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. There are early records of Shively's also in Virginia and Kentucky. There are not many established Shively lineages back to Europe. There are documented lineages to Switzerland and Germany. Through the sharing of information from all of our research it is desired that all can learn about our Shively families.

The postcard above was post marked 5-Apr-1917 and sent to Ellis Shively in Rogers, Ohio. The message reads:  Lisbon, O. Apr. 4, 1917
Dear Ellis:
I am sending a bunch of packages of paper, construction paper for Hazelville - Miss Hareford; Millrock - Leo Yooly; Carmel - Alvada Thomas; Sixteen - Elmer Cope; Clarkson - Charles Sounders; Fairmount - Yourself.
May I ask you to distribute this as far as you can. Yours will cost 88 cents. Paper is high - construction paper costs from one to one and one fourth cents per sheet.
             Very truly
             W. M. Henderson
