We may have a connection. My grandmother was married (once or twice) prior to becoming a Jobe. I can't recall the name. She had one child with him. I want to say it was Parker. She had three children with Jobe. I regret to say she passed 22 Oct 08. Sorry it has been so late to respond. I'm currently in Germany - would be interested to know where the Shoemaker's are from in Europe
