Hi, I have a Jacob Shuman who I am trying to verify as my ggggrandfather. He was born in 1778, possibly in Botetourt Co, Va. He was in Ohio by 1810 as I have found him listed on the tax list for that year in Hamilton Co. I had hoped this Jacob was my gggrandmother Catherine Shuman's father, but I have her as being born in 1792, so the dates don't support that. If the dates are accurate, Jacob and Catherine could have been siblings...or I may just be on the wrong track. I am quite sure that Catherine married Daniel 'Whitaker at Springfield, Hamilton Co, OH in 1814. I have quite a lot of info on Daniel's descendants. Does any of this seem to connect with your Shuman's? BBB
