Chris, Earlier, I had on this forum noted that I had Dr. Ruff a retired Luthern Minister do a search for some births involving the Shumans. I had posted them earlier. They were taken from the records of the Jacobs Luthern church in Mason Town, Pa. If they had these Shuman birth and baptisms, possibly the records would also indicated deaths and burials, marraiges, and possibly more births. There were also Kendals mentioned in the birth records. Anyway the Curch records arre supposed to be in the Archives at the church and in good condition. Can you read any german. Some records amu be in german, bur enough schould be understood as to be broken down into English later. Check back on my postings. Cheers Bill Shuman
