30. CLEMENT SHINN (3).--JAMES (2), JOHN (1). This son of James and Abigail (Lippincott)
Shinn first appears as a witness upon several marriage certificates. He married Elizabeth Webb, a woman not of Quaker faith, in 1740, as is shown by the secular register. Burlington Monthly Meeting records disclose the
interesting fact that he made acknowledgments to the society at that place on November 3, 1741. Little is known of his life. From family records of his children in Harrison County, Virginia (now West Virginia), from
other records of his descendants in Philadelphia and Ohio, and from Friends' records of Burlington, Mt. Holly, Chesterfield, and Evesham, N. J., we are enabled to present his children and their marriages:
Children of Clement and Elizabeth (Webb) Shinn. 165 (1) Hannah Shinn, b. 1742, married at Evesham, N. J., 1762. 166. (2) Peter Shinn, b. 10/20/1744, married Grace Gaskell June, 1779.
