Posted on: Davidson County, NCGenWeb Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Davidson/1798 Surname: ------------------------- Hi Lawrence, Frank Shoaf was born in 1844 to Christian Shoaf, Jr. and Polly Hege. Frank's siblings are David(01/03/1829), Elizabeth(01/22/1831), Polly(09/14/1833), Alfred(03/05/1835), Infant son(1839), Frank(06/20/1844), Susanna(06/19/1848) and Christian Augustus(10/22/1850). I think there was one more daughter in between Infant son and Frank, but can't prove this yet. In all of my records, Frank is never referred to as "John", but John was his great-grandfather's name !! Christian Shoaf, Jr was born abt.1800 and died September 11,1859. Polly Hege was born April 13,1808 and died July 19,1856. They were married in 1828. They lived between Lexington and "Salem" where they operated an inn for travelers. They are both buried at Old Vernon Cemetery. Best Of Luck, Carol
