On the Find A Grave page for her son, Eli Shugart:

J. Stover, a genealogy researcher, author, and weekly genealogy columnist in Cumberland County, KY, writes that Catherine, Eli's mother, was actually named at birth Catherine Best, and had been born in Germany on 6 April 1742, rather than in Pennsylvania. According to her research, she died in 1822 in Wayne County, Indiana. Presumably, her sources of information are available on request through her contact page on Find A Grave.
