I would really appreciate it. I know there was one in my family that married a James S. Johnson and I believe they were members of the Church of the Brethren. Thanks, Gary Shedron How much have you researched this surname? I have ancestors of variants of this surname from York County. I can trace them back to: Name: Johan Heinrich SCHEDDERON Death: BEF. 18 JAN 1772 Marriage 1 Anna Maria HERBACH Among their children is my ancestor: Maria Catharina SHEDERON b: ABT. 1730 in Otterberg, Germany. She married Johann Peter GUTLIN/GUDLING (GOODLING). Other researchers have traced the SCHEDDERON line even further back to Sedan. France. They were Huguenots who fled France and settled in Germany long before they emigrated from Germany to Pennsylvania. I believe the original spelling of the name is SHETRONE. Joan
