      Classification: Query

      There is a John Shewmaker who was born abt 1765 in Albermarle (now Amherst) co in Va, and moved to Ky around 1787, perhaps to Mercer Co. He married Nancy Peter, and they moved to the Willisburg area of Washington Co., where he died in 1811. They have numerous Shewmaker descendants in the area. Some reverted to Shoemaker, and then back to Shewmaker. Another line of Shewmakers moved to Missouri.

      I think John was the son of William Shoemaker, who was son of John Shoemaker, both born in Virginia. John Sr. was the son of John Shoemaker, born in England, and arrived in Henrico Co., Va abt 1652.

      Information on William and his descendants is from: Rhoades, Clara Lee Shewmaker. 1975. Ancestors and Heirs of the Elizabeth Catharine Davenport, S.T. "Doc" Shewmaker, and Elizabeth Corn Family of Mercer County and Washington County, Kentucky. Britton's Printing Service, Harrodsburg, Kentucky.
