    p. 339: "The America Joseph Wasey Mr from London Arrived 20th of 6th mo. 1683. Jacob Shoemaker borne in ye Palatinate in Germany servant to Danel Pastorius & compa."6
  • Note: "We have the dates of marriage, in Abington Meeting records, of George, Sarah, Isaac, and Susanna; of the four children Barbary, Abraham, Elizabeth, and Benjamin, there is no mention either in the minutes of the meeting or in family wills or deeds. It is therefore inferred that they died unmarried."2
  • Note: In his book Benjamin Shoemaker notes "that the Admiral William Rawle Shoemaker (Chelt. 4312) family records state that the original George Shoemaker married Sarah Kendrick (probably Hendricks) at Heldelberg, in 1662, and that their son, Isaac, married his cousin, Sarah Hendricks...This, however, is an extremely doubtful hypothesis."7
  • Note: Hull lists Schumacher immigrants8
  • Note: Regarding Germantown, see "Ancient and modern Germantown, Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill" by Rev. S. F. Hotchkin, 1889. [Google Books]
  • Note: Thomas H. Shoemaker gives a short history of the family in Penn. Mag. of History & Biography vol 16 issue 2 (July 1892) p. 254-256, in which he cites "The Shoemaker Family, of Cheltenham", p. 76 in "The old York road and its early associations of history and biography. 1670 - 1870", by Anne de Benneville Mears, printed 1890 Harper & Bro.
