It's organized alphabetically and for each person it lists date of death, age at death (sometimes), and general location in the cemetery. I'm hoping to get back up to the Tamaqua library this month and would be happy to do lookups for you. Should I check for anyone besides Edward Eveland, Cordilla Eveland, and Mary Isabella Shoemaker? The land records are confusing to me and I've done very little research in that regard. Some of the Zimmermans you found sound familiar-I think they might be from the Pine Grove area, which is near Pottsville. At some point, I'm going to visit the Registrar of Wills in Pottsville and see what I can find. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi, I have a marriage record in Schuylkill County that lists the birth place of one of the Parents as Front Creek. The time of birth would be in the early 1900's. Is this a patch in Schuylkill County or where might it be? Please advise. Gary

Hi, My great grandparents were Joseph Foose who married (Barbara) Catherine Lehr. Joseph was born in Zion Grove, Union Township, in November 17, 1833. Catherine was born in 1841. They were married in 1864. They were married in Frieden's Union Church, Mt. Grove, PA. I wondered if anyone else out there is researching them?? Sylvia Lantz

Pat, Took a look in my files for DIMLER, as I'd tracked a connection to that name some time ago: Catherine m. Chas. Leach.

Thank you! I have been digging through more land purchase records. I'm not sure about some of the earlier dates as I confused warrents with purchase dates. Jonathan and John Shoemaker bought land 2/14/1786 in Northampton. The warranter was George Shoemaker. Other Shoemaker land purchases in Northampton: Isaac (2/5/1785), Conrad (4/11/1748), Henry (3/12/1784), Daniel (2/9/1784), Mary C. & Jacob (in trust, 4/28/1785; warranter-Michael Shoemaker, orphans portion), Daniel & heirs of Elijah (3/17/1787)Henry (6/9/1787), Abraham (also noted William & Daniel, 5/23/1787), Paul (11/13/1788), Henry & Samuel (8/18/1889). I did not find Zimmermans in the Northampton listings. However, there were several in other counties. Tax records for Schuylkill list the following Zimmermans: Peter (1809, 1810, 1811), William (1813), George (1825), Peter (1825), Henry (1838), Sebastian (1838), Abraham (1840), Samuel (1852, 1853), David (1853), Peter (1856). John is the only Shoemaker listed. Philadelphia ship re! cords show the following arrivals: Johannes Nicholas Schumacher (9/23/1741), Hans Jacob, Anna Maria, Paul, George & Anna Maria Shoemaker (10/8/1737), George Zimmerman (10/25/1746), Michael Shoemaker (9/13/1749), Friedrik Zimmerman (9/28/1751), Johannes Shoemaker (11/7/1754), Henry Shoemaker (9/5/1743), Friedrich & John Tobias Zimmerman (8/28/1750), Peter Shoemaker (9/29/1753). >From the information you provided, it seems reasonable to conclude that Mary (Polly) Shoemaker was Jonathan Shoemaker's younger sister. The Caroline Zimmerman who was living with Cordilla in the 1850 census may have been called by her middle name. Cordilla may have been called by her middle name as well. Mary Isabella Shoemaker is buried in the Oddfellows Cemetary in Tamaqua. It is likely Cordilla Eveland is buried there, possibly near her husband, Edward Eveland. These dates could help identify her family of origin. It is very unfortunate the the baptismal records for Zion UCC were destroyed. It would certainly make this process much easier.
