Disputed Parentage

Some Ancestry Trees claim that Martin Sheets was the son of Andrew Sheets (1774-1855) and Mary Shearer (1776-1855), but Andrew Sheets would have only been 13 years old and Mary Shearer would have only been 11 years old when this Martin Sheets was born in 1787, so this has been easily DISPROVEN. Additional research is needed.
