>James, I note that you referred to the SC/GA Shuman line. I have not been >able to determine when Martin Henry Shuman came over, and into what port. >Also, did he have any other kin that came over with him? I have assumed he >came >to Philly. Any input would be a help. Thanks. Bonnie Carn > I know there are several from this line on the List; does anyone have information on where Martin Henry came from, exactly? If so, there are many of us who would appreciate your help... There *was* a major migration trail from eastern PA and MD down the VA valley into NC. Even so, that was a long way to travel in the 1700s, so I had always assumed that he landed somewhere farther south than Philadelphia, but I have no evidence of that. What do some of you others have to say? JS ____________________________ James Shuman, art instructor Modesto High School jshuman@telis.org ____________________________
