Speedy is my grandfather and I know part of Uncle Bobby's extended family through his son-in-law. I did manage to get a temporary CDIB card for the cherokee tribe, but it's not federally recognized so it doesn't do much good. Did you have any luck in getting the same? My children have more native american blood than I do. They are comanche and kiowa and are on the roll for the comanches.

In the body of your post, you discuss Mandy Stewart Shewmaker and Charles Shewmaker. I am familiar with a Mandy Shewmaker and Charles Shewmaker. The ones I know about are both deceased and Charles is buried in San Bernardino, ca. Mandy is buried somewhere in Northern California, I can make inquiries and find out exactly where.

They are the great grandparents of my son by my first marriage. Their son is Ambers Earl Shewmaker and is in his eightys but still living in the San Bernardino area.

They all originated out of west Texas.

What is your connection and how can I be of assistance? Kandie barnett shewmaker cansler

These were also my great grandparents and I would appreciate hearing about any information you may have discovered. My Grandfather was Charles(Charlie) David Shewmaker and his second wife (my grandmother)was Mandy L. Stewart.

I also am the great-great granddaughter of Nora Shewmake and Emmett Hugh Byrd (their granddaughter Opal is my grandmother). Great-Grandpaw Byrd (their son) was their only child and Nora remarried someone with the last name of Jones. Somewhere in my parents' house is a copy of her death certificate. Most of this information is what their granddaughter Jo and my moma have told me in the past in researching what Indian tribe my family is from. This is what the family tree should look like from Nora on (I don't know if ya know this already or not, but it doesn't hurt to repeat it, I guess):

Nora Elizabeth Shewmake married Emmett Hugh Byrd and had Hugh Byrd. Hugh Byrd married Grace Frances Fletcher and had seven children. Those seven children were my Great Aunt Mamie, my Grandmaw Opal Frances, Great Uncle Bobby, Great Uncle Speedy (real name Claude), Great Aunt Chickie (real name Elizabeth), Great Aunt Jo, and Great Uncle Emmett. As to all of their children, I couldn't begin to name them all. I hope this helps some.

Shewmaker, Ruel and Garnet Bell - MICHIGAN

catherine_priest — 2007-06-30 23:30:05Z

Would like to find a contact with information on this family. Ruel died in 1991 and Garnet died in 1983. They both died in Oakland County and Garnet was originally from Uniontown, Pa. Have about 90% of the information on the Bell family and any help on Garnet would be greatly appreciated. Will share all my information with family members. Contact zcats@Comcast.net.

Look at Bailey Weeks Family tree it shows the dates your looking for and third Jesse with his family information you may email me at hearthstonememories@yahoo.com if you have questions you might be able to help me with other Shewmakers as I work on the family tree. Thank you

Re: Shewmakers Out there

wapr59 — 2007-05-20 23:53:34Z

Do you have any dates to go with those names? I only have one pair of father-son Jesses in my Shewmaker file. Jesse Sr (1772-1880). I have no dates for Jesse Jr, but I would assume he was b ~1800. These may be too early to be your grandfather's ancestors.

Re: Shewmakers Out there

Are you referring to Perry Elmer Shewmake born 8 Feb 1892 in Seymour, Baylor County, Texas, died 1966 and buried in Rockwall, Texas ?

If so, I am a decendant of his sister, Lou Ella. I have photos of him, Lou Ella, and their sister Stella together.

Please contact me.

Re: Shewmakers Out there

Stan_Grubaugh — 2006-09-03 14:33:48Z

The dates of William are correct. He died in Seymour, Baylor County,Texas and is buried in the Round Timbers cemetery outside Seymour with his wife Nancy.
Thomas Wiley is the twin brother of William Riley, they were born 2 Dec 1861 in Weatherford, Texas.
I have information for Nora Elizabeth. Her original birth certificate had two errors on it and indicaqted a birth of 10 May 1892. Her actual birth was 10 May 1890, and it was officially corrected in 1956.
Please contact me and exchange information.

Re: Shewmake/Shoemaker

sfondren187 — 2006-07-06 05:20:14Z

Do you have any documentation of this Jesse Shoemaker's children? Did he leave a will or estate record?
I'm especially interested in Jesse, born 1793 in GA, died Choctaw Co., MS between 1858 & 1860. I have recently discovered documentation that indicates this Jesse is not the son of Jesse.

James Shewmaker b. KY in IN by 1840

2004-11-02 20:56:50Z

James Shewmaker and Harriett Malinda Walker were both born in KY according to 1840 IN census. By this time they had 3 sons and 2 daughters.

James b. abt. 1809 and Malinda b. abt. 1810. It has been family legend from my family and from a "New Found Cousin" that Harriett Malinda was a full blood Indian.

I have not been able to trace James back to KY without knowing at least the county. At least 2 children were born in KY.

On the census, his name is spelled Shoemaker but on the tombstone it is spelled Shewmaker and grandaughter spelled maiden name as Shewmaker.

Any one that might have a clue as to where in KY this family might be found please contact me. Thank you. Donna

I think we are of Scots-Irish lineage. Does any one know?

Re: Shewmakers in Iowa

My g-grandfather was James M Shewmaker, grandfather was Jacob V. Shewmaker b.May 18, 1867, d. March 7, 1933 Min. Married Laura Ashton August 1889. They had five children Paul, Kate, Piatt, Percy, and Ellen. We seem to have a connection here.

Re: Shewmaker/Taylor

2005-05-10 15:25:49Z

I'm more interested in the Groom connection, my mother's family line. I have that Nancy E. Groom married a William W. Shewmaker and they had seven children; Rosa, Ira, Almeda, Jim, Arch, Kate, and Della. All except Ira married and that is all I have on the matter. I do live in Caldwell Co. next to Clinton Co. and have family in Andrew Co.
