Corrspondence 09/01/02 passenger #35 Schuhmacher/Shoemaker 
I found Jerg Schuhmacher in your Ship James Goodwill list arriving 11 
September 1728. He died in Fredrick County Maryland about 1773, I have 
traced 2 of his sons, Jacob and John, one being born in New York, 
Pennsylvania, but it is possible that he had a 3rd son, Christian. Their 
roots can be found on my web site at My Genealogy
