I think I am confused on how to send a message. Here it goes, My great grandmother was Mary Adeline Shuman Crappse, she was married to Jacob S. Crappse who was shot and killed by his cousin Jessie Crapps in 1905 leaving her with 8 young children. That is how my grandfather and his brothers ended up in New Jersey. Mary Adeline Shuman was the daughter of Joseph (JJB) Shuman, son of Joseph Shuman, son of Martin Shuman, son of Martin Shuman. Looks like she was the youngest sister of Joseph D. Shuman, she had 3 older married sisters, Harriet, Isabell and Salina, and a younger brother Talvert. She was about 15 yrs old when her father died. Hope someone gets this and I am doing this correctly. Marie

Cousins, Fall is definitely here, and I thought now would be a good time to call your attention to a message that appeared in this week's "RootsWeb Review." I've reproduced it here FYI, and I do strongly recommend it, especially for those who haven't been searching very long, or who feel "in a rut" or "up against a brick wall." Spend some time perusing these "lessons," and see how many new ideas you can glean! Best wishes all! JS List Custodian ROOTSWEB'S GUIDE TO TRACING FAMILY TREES consists of brief interactive genealogy lessons with research tips, links to relevant resources at RootsWeb and elsewhere on the Internet, and suggested reading and reference lists. While there is no lesson "What is the Meaning of Life?," there is one called "What is the Question?" Fifteen lessons are online now and more will be posted beginning again in a few weeks. This wee hiatus gives those who haven't yet joined in the fun a chance to catch up, and the rest of us a chance to marvel at the changes, among which are some additional links and references, and improved printing instructions. The lessons are available also in PDF format. Suggestions are welcomed (please use the Feedback button at the end of each lesson). <http://www.rootsweb.com/~rwguide/> _______________________________________________ James Shuman, Telecommunications Coordinator The California Arts Project jshuman@telis.org http://www.ucop.edu/tcap/ _______________________________________________

Would you happen to have information on Abraham Klace Shuman married to (1) Mary Elizabeth Knapp (2)..........? (3) /Amanda Clementine Evans before 1916?

Julie, I ave a cousin Janice Shuman born May 25, 1943, probably in Georgia to Lyle W. and Glodene Shuman. Janice may have married a man named Burch (last name) and died in May 1973 in Claxton, GA.Do you know how to find an obituary for someone who died in Claxton? BTW, Lyle died in Agust 1972 in Ellijay, GA, while Glodene died in Nov. 1974 in Long Beach California. Perhaps Glodene and Lyle W. split up, but I have no idea when. that might explain why they were buried about 2000 miles apart. -- Richard L.

As far as I know this isn't my line, but this summer my brother, sister-in-law and I happened to spend some time in the Cambridge, Ohio library. I found Adam Shuman there. This is what I have on him: Census 1850 Guernsey Co.

Shaun, Carolyn has lots of info on this line and I am sure that she can help you. Randy

Leonard Shuman was my great-grandfathers half-brother. Leonard had 7 or 8 brothers and sisters and 2 or 3 halfs from a previous marriage by his father. Randy

Thank you for responding to my query. At this time I do not know Ruel Shumans fathers name, only that his mothers name was Jane ?. I received a message from a Carolyn Jarrad that she has further info on my line and that she would get with me in the near future. I am hopeful. Again thank you for your response. Shaun

I am Alan R. Shuman. I know that my family is from Claxton,Georgia. My father's name is Elton Wade Shuman Jr. His father's name is E.W. Shuman Sr. and we think his father's name is Leonard Shuman ? E.W. Sr died in the mid 1980's in Stone Mountain, Ga. I do know that E.W. Sr.'s sister is named Edna. Thank you for any assistance. Alan

Do you know the name of Ruel Shumans father -Jeff Davis County.Ga. There was a Martin Shuman that came to S.C. from Germany in 1750. The Martin Shuman you listed may have been named after him. I come from this family of Shumans. Randy in Ga.

My wife's g-mother is Della Shuman b. 1/15/1915 in Jeff Davis Co., GA, born to Ruel R. SHUMAN b. 1865 in SC. He m. Adiline SIMMONS of Jeff Davis Co., GA. Ruel and Adiline had 14 children the best I know, Elsie 1891-,Martin 1893-, Adar or Ada 1897-,Willie,Alvin,Dewitt,Arthur,Jimmy Lee,Maybelle,Alice,Ella,Myrtis,DELLA 1915-, and Iralee. If any of this is familiar I would be very interested in further info. Thanks! Shaun

We are researching the Mulrine family of Huntington County,Indiana,possibly Roanoke area. We have found that a David Mulrine married a Rosannah Victoria Shuman Jul 13,1857. Possibly they put in their for their license Jul 13,1857 and married Aug.21,1857. We want to know if this David Mulrine came from the same Mulrine family as ours. Simon Mulrine and Sarah Francis Johnson. Simon also married twice. Can anyone confirm these lines for me? Ginger Weston

Hey Carolyn, How did you weather the storm? I hope ya'll are fine. I have a cousin in Jesup that is married to a Jarrard. His name is Terry Jarrard, his wife Cindy Henry Jarrard is my cousin. Are you related to him? Randy
