Surnames: Clouse,Shrack, Hench Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zIJ.2ACEB/335.1.1 Message Board Post: Lewis Clouse's father/mother were Jacob Clouse & Mary Moore. Both were born in Pennsylvania. Jacob's parents were Christopher Clouse & Anna Catherine Hench from Pennsylvania. Christopher died in Washington Co. PA. Christopher's father was Thomas Clouse who was born in 1710 in White County, Tennessee. I do not have the name of Thomas' father but his grandfather was William Clouse, Jr.. (place of birth unknown). His father of course was William Clouse, Sr. born about 1623 (place unknown). William Sr.'s father was Phettiplace Clouse born 1593 in Germany. If you have any additions to this it would be greatly appreciated.
