Shirley, My great-great grandparents are Susannah Shoup (5 Mar 1832 Petersburg, Richland Twp, Venango Co, Pennsylvania- 11 Sep 1923 Millcreek Twp, Clarion Co, Pennsylvania) and. Andrew Jackson Myers (20 Sep 1836 Petersburg, Richland Twp, Venango Co, Pennsylvania- 15 Apr 1879 Fisher, Millcreek Twp, Clarion Co, Pennsylvania). Susannah is the daughter of David Shoup (19 Oct 1800 Unity Twp, Westmoreland Co, Pennsylvania- 17 May 1889 Richland Twp, Clarion Co, Pennsylvania) and Rosina Shakeley (Abt 1797- 15 May 1837 Richland Twp, Venango Co, Pennsylvania). David is the son of Solomon Shoup (1767 Nockamixon Twp, Bucks Co, Pennsylvania- Aug 1817 Richland Twp, Venango Co, Pennsylvania) and Elizabeth (1769-). Solomon is the son of Jacob Shoup (1744 Nockamixon Twp, Bucks Co, Pennsylvania- Aft 14 Aug 1810) and Ann Elizabeth Lightcap (23 Jun 1746 Bucks Co, Pennsylvania- Aft 14 Aug 1810). Jacob is the son of Jacob Schaub ( - Aft 11 Jan 1766) and Veronica (). I have this note about emigration: Sara Anson Vaux and Kenneth Lester Vaux, YEARNING TO BREATHE FREE: THE GERMAN MIGRATIONS (Shoup, Edinger, and related families); p 6; "About 1788 the Shoup brothers decided to move west...The four brothers traveled together until they arrived in Westmoreland Co., arriving there at least by 1793, perhaps as early as 1789. The Shoups took the Monacacy road and the road along the Juniata River across the mountains, apparently stopping several years in Huntingdon Co....Jacob settled in Unity twp., Westmoreland Co." This is a line I haven't done a whole lot of research on, so don't have much documentation on the generations before David.
