Carol Canham Harker, Jobe Shadrack is not my direct line, but I have done some research on him. You probably have this already, but here goes: I do not find Job(e) Shadrack H. Canham after his marriage to Minnie E. Hewitt on 18 Dec 1894. In 1880 he is in Franklin, Illinois with his mother and step-dad. I have not researched Minnie. His parents are Shadrack Canham and Mary Elizabeth Pearson (7 or 8 children); grandparents: John Canham and Pheobe Bailey (10 children + stepchildren). That is as far as I went. Others online show his gr-grandpts: Thomas Jr. Canham and Elizabeth Darken, and his gr-gr-grandpts: Thomas Canham and Anna Roper.
