General Notes: Husband - Christian Shockey

---

The history of the Shockey family and their ancestry is indefinite, except that they lived in the immediate vicinity of Washington township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, for a long period of time, tracing back more than a hundred years, often possessing large tracts of valuable real estate, in Washington Township, and Washington County, Maryland, along the Mason & Dixon line, and scarcely ever during this long period of years did any other business than agriculture. Farming was the height of their ambition, and nothing could give them the same satisfaction as that of cultivating and owning more land than their neighbors, often combining their might to accomplish the purchasing of certain tracts of real estate. Let it be said they usually were successful.

He and his wife were born and raised in Washington County, Maryland, just across the line from Franklin County, Pennsylvania, not far from Waynesboro. They were members of the German Baptist Church, and had eleven children, three sons and four daughters of whom lived to be men and women.
He was a farmer by occupation.
