General Notes: Husband - Sherman Tecumseh Shoop

---

He was educated in the schools of Freeport, Pennsylvania, and at the age of thirteen years came with his parents to Sewickley in Allegheny County, when they moved there in 1880. It was at this time that his father engaged in a tinworking business, and under the direction of the elder man, Sherman T. learned the tin trade. The Shoop family had been in this business for thirty-four years and after the death of Mr. Simon Shoop, the son carried it on. He was a tin contractor and did work in both tin and slate roofing. In politics Mr. Shoop was a Democrat, and took a lively interest in the conduct of public affairs. He was a member of the Order of the Heptasophs and of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of Sewickley. Mr. Shoop was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, while Mrs. Shoop was reared an Episcopalian.
