[edit] Other Edward Shippens

This comment was inserted into the main article by Manangy:

"The Edward Shippen who succeeded Thomas McKean as Chief Justice of the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court was a descendant of this man. The latter Shippen lived from 1729-1806; it was his daughter Peggy who married Benedict Arnold."

This jibes with the Virtualology.com bio, which mentions yet a third Edward Shippen, also of the same family. Each of the three probably deserves his own article.--BillFlis 18:15, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
