Shanklin Family
In the United States, the phrase Shanklin Family commonly refers to the family descending from Gilbert Shankland of Enniskillen, Ireland. The Shanklin family in the United States were plantation owners in Augusta County, Virginia, now Rockingham County, Virginia and later in Jessamine County, Kentucky & Todd County, Kentucky that were involved in American politics and government.
==First generations in the United States==
Robert Shankland (1726–1796) traveled to America using university tuition given to him by his father Robert Shankland Sr. in 1747. Robert's brother Edward I (1700–1769) also came to the United States during this time period. Edward Shankland I changed the family name to Shanklin. Edward I settled in the area known as Augusta County, Virginia. Edward's brother Thomas Shanklin (1690-1774) is reputed to be the inspiration for the scout in James Fenimore Cooper's The Last Of The Mohicans. Later this region of settlement was named Rockingham County, Virginia. Edward's son, Edward II (1740–1806) was a supplier and soldier in the American Revolutionary War. Edward II was granted several hundred acres in the Virginia Territory of southern Kentucky for his service in addition to also having one of the largest plantation land holdings in Rockingham County, Virginia.
