My mother was Katherine Ann Shoemaker (maiden name). She married Reinhardt Paludan. Her mother was Pearl M. Shoemaker. Pearl was Anna Catherine Shoemaker's niece. Anna Catherine married Joseph Peter Elsasser. They had 3 sons. Leo, Edward and Daniel. I have tried to contact Katherine Ann Elsasser but she won't help me. I am the family )amateur) genealogist and would very much like to have more information on the Elsassers. I have a LOT of information on the Shoemakers (Schumachers) from Germany. Help me and I will help you! Please?? Kathy Johnson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
