The following sketch was copied from Baskins 1880 History of Delaware
County page 315. "Daniel Sheets,undertaker,Kilbourne; was born in Augusta Co. Va.
Oct 17,1815; is the son of Henry and Sarah (Reese) Sheets, both of
German descent; Daniel early in life, learned the carpenter's trade, and
at the age of 22, came to this State; his parents preceded him a short
time, settling in this county; after his arrival in this county, he
engaged at his trade. In April ,1842, he married to Eunice Lake, born in
New York State (Steuben Co.); came West in 1836. After marriage, Mr.Sheets
engaged in the cabinet business, and was in the saw-mill business at
Stratford for several years; he then built a cabinet shop there, and
engaged in that business for some time; then moved to Eden and engaged in
the Saw-mill business, which he followed for eighteen years; sawed many
thousand feet at 25 cents per hundred, and never got over 30 cents for
sawing during this time, he was engaged in the cabinet business also;
lived in Eden about fifteen years; in 1859, he moved to his present
residence, one quarter mile west of Eden ; has a good home and 40 acres of
land; is still engaged in the undertaking business; manufactured his own
coffins until 1872; has disposed of nearly one thousand outfits; has also,
in connection with his business, a sorghum manufactory, and makes annually
from one to three thousand gallons. Mr.Sheets began life poor; his father
had lost all by "going bail," and his children had no patrimony
to begin with, and had to depend upon their own resources. Daniel Sheets
is the father of ten children, nine of whom are living--- Martha, Ellen,
Rebecca, Caroline, Milo D., Joseph, Mary, Samuel and Ora B. ".

This man is between 20 and 30 years of age. Not sure which family he came from but possibly California Gold Rush period. I keep thinking he could be Ansyl Humiston who died in Southern Indiana in 1846. Any help in dating this photo because of clothing would be appreciated.
