Simon Shoemaker

Family
ChartsAncestry of David Kipp Melat
     Simon Shoemaker married Anna Catherine (?)1 He married Anna Elisabetha Kless, daughter of Philip Heinrich Kless, on 2 December 1728 in Staudernheim, Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland-Palatinate.2
     
Research Note:

Simon Shoemaker was the father of three brothers Jacob, Henry and Charles who immigrated to Berks County, Pennsylvania from Germany sometime around 1750. However, several secondary sources incorrectly conclude that these Shoemaker brothers were the grandsons of the Quaker German immigrant Jacob Shoemaker of Germantown, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. While other elements of those compliations can be verified by other primary sources, this connection to the Germantown Shoemaker family is in error. Unfortunately this error has been perpetuated broadly in a number of other compilation and now online media to include the family tree on Ancestry.com.3,4,5
     Simon Shoemaker lived in Odernheim am Glan, Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, where he was a school teacher.6
     Simon Shoemaker possibly immigrated to Pennsylvania in 1752 aboard the Ship Richard and Mary, however, there are no other Shoemakers listed on the passenger manifest indicating that, at least, no other adult male members of his family accompanied him. Any younger male children, such as his son Charles who would have been 10 years old, or any female members of his family, such as his daughter Sophia, could have accompanied him but not be listed on the manifest. Further it is possibly that some of his older children, such as Jacob and Henry migrated to Pennsylvania prior to 1752. Of course it is entirely possible that this Simon Shoemaker was not the the Simon from Odernheim. Beyond this reference to a Simon Shoemaker on the 1752 ship's passanger list, there is no other known record of Odernheim Simon Shoemaker living in Pennsylvania. He may have died soon after his arrival, if he came at all.7

Samuel Shoemaker

     
Research Note:

Samuel Shoemaker was the father of three brothers an unknown person who immigrated to Berks County, Pennsylvania from Germany sometime around 1750. However, several secondary sources incorrectly conclude that these Shoemaker brothers were the grandsons of the Quaker German immigrant Jacob Shoemaker of Germantown, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. While other elements of those compliations can be verified by other primary sources, this connection to the Germantown Shoemaker family is in error. Unfortunately this error has been perpetuated broadly in a number of other compilation and now online media to include the family tree on Ancestry.com.1,2,3
     Samuel Shoemaker lived in Odernheim am Glan, Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, where he was a school teacher.4
     Samuel Shoemaker possibly immigrated to Pennsylvania aboard the Ship Richard and Mary, however, there are no other Shoemakers listed on the passenger manifest indicating that, at least, no other adult male members of his family accompanied him. Any younger male children, such as his son Charles who would have been 10 years old, or any female members of his family, such as his daughter Sophia, could have accompanied him but not be listed on the manifest. Further it is likley that some of his older children, such as Jacob and Henry migrated to Pennsylvania prior to 1752. Of course it is entirely possible that this Simon Shoemaker was not the the Simon from Odernheim. Beyond this reference to a Simon Shoemaker on the 1752 ship's passanger list, there is no other known record of Odernheim Simon Shoemaker living in Pennsylvania. He may have died soon after his arrival, if he came at all.5

d. 1791
Family
     Jacob Stamm married Anna Eva (?)1,2 He died in 1791 in Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania.1
     Jacob Stamm was living in Albany Township as early as 1765 where he was a farmer.3,4,5,6,7,8 He was an Elder at Friedens Union Church in Albany Township.9
     
Research Note:

Jacob Stamm and an unknown person might be the parents of Maria Stamm based on circumstantial evidence. According to the burial record of Maria's daugther Christinia, Maria's maiden name was Stamm. The earliest record of Maria's husband Michael is in 1783 when he appears on the tax list in Albany Township, Berks County which is where Jacob Stamm lived. The proximity of Michael and Maria Sieger with Jacob Stamm suggest a relationship and the possibility that Jacob was Maria's father.2,1,7,10,11
