- No birth record has been found for Jane Shapley. Her parentage is proven by her baptismal record and the inventory of the estate of Benjamin Shapley of New London, Mariner and Sea Captain, dated 10 September 176, listed Jane Shapley, aged 12, as one of the heirs.

On 9 January 1738/9, Joshua Appleton brought suit against Daniel Shapley in a dispute over land of Mary (Picket) Shapley.
The will of Joshua Appleton of New London, painter, dated 3 October 1728, and proved 8 June 1754, appointed his wife Jane as executrix, and made provision for her to remain in the ouse until Benjamin reached the age of 21 years unless she needed to sell the house to support the family. When of age, Benjamin was to be given the opportunity of keeping the unsold house as part of his share of inheritance, provided he paid the other children, who were unnamed their share.
