Family Links Spouses/Children: SHOEMAKER, Michael SHOEMAKER, John+ SHOEMAKER, Nathan+ SHOEMAKER, Mary+ SHOEMAKER, Elmore+ SHOEMAKER, Pearson+ SHOEMAKER, Sarah+ SHOEMAKER, Elizabeth Green+ SHOEMAKER, William A.+ SHOEMAKER, Henrietta+ LONG, Elizabeth 1 2 3 4 5 6 Born: 29 Jul 1782, New York Marriage: SHOEMAKER, Michael on 24 Oct 1799 in Salem County, New Jersey Died: 31 Mar 1856, Ogle County, Illinois at age 73 Buried: Apr 1856, Brick Church [Elkhorn] Cemetery, Hazelhurst, Ogle County, Illinois   General Notes: Elizabeth's place of birth is taken from the 1850 US Census, wherein she lists her birthplace as New York. However, this may be an error on the part of the census-taker, as it is more likely that she was born in New Jersey. Elizabeth married Michael SHOEMAKER, son of Jacob SHOEMAKER and Catherine LEE, on 24 Oct 1799 in Salem County, New Jersey. (Michael SHOEMAKER was born on 25 Mar 1778 in Friesburg, Salem County, New Jersey, died on 30 May 1864 in Polo, Ogle County, Illinois and was buried in Jun 1864 in Brick Church [Elkhorn] Cemetery, Hazelhurst, Ogle County, Illinois.)
