Excerpt from The Shoemaker Family

From the frequency and number of questions asked about our family, there appears to be an awakening interest among its various members to know a little of the history of their ancestors. It has therefore seemed well, for the benefit of such inquirers, to place in a compact form such information as a number of years of research has furnished me with. It has not been at all my intention to attempt a genealogy of the family, but simply to lay the corner-stone for others, who may wish to build thereon their own particular lines. I have started with the earliest possible data obtainable of those of the name, and so specified the various earlier branches, of which I have a knowl edge, that it should be comparatively easy work for any of their descendants to trace their lines back and make connection with the emigrants. The frequent repetition of Christian names in the different lines and generations necessitates great care and watchfulness on the part of those who may take up the subject, and the verifying of all such data, or errors will occur.
