Shulenberger was a youth of active mind, and he secured a good education in the district schools, growing into a young man of more than the usual intelligence and information. In addition to farming, he became a skilled veterinary surgeon, although he had no medical opportunities. He was so successful that his time was filled with professional engagements, whenever he could be spared from the farm. After his marriage he settled in Mifflin Twp, , and at his father's death, he bought 176 acres of the family estate. He continued to improve this place, making it one of the finest farms of the township, and there his death took place, 21 Sept, 1901. His burial was at Zion Church in Hopewell Twp. Few men were more highly respected, or more sadly missed, than Robert Shulenberger. In 1880 he was elected justice of the peace, and served faithfully in this office until his death, a period of twenty-one years, and was just entering upon another term. For six years he was a school director, was also auditor, served on the election board, and in fact was one chosen by his fellow citizens to fill the offices of trust and responsibility. Future examiners of the township records will have no occasion to ask what kind of man was Robert Shulenberger, for they will find his name standing for honesty and integrity. and for the faithful performance of public business. A consistent and active member of the Reformed Church, Mr Shulenberger possessed the happy faculty of making his religion so bright and so real that instead of turning the youthful from it, he was noted for his influence with the young. He had charge of the children's department of the church, and was universally beloved by them, and his influence will long be apparent."
