In 1892 Jacob Franklin Shockey was reading his Kansas City Star Paper at his home in West Virginia, when he noticed an item written by a man by the name of Wells telling about land that could be homesteaded in Montgomery Co. Arkansas. He wrote to Mr. Wells and after exchanging several letters, he sold his home in West Virginia and about Feb. 1893 he and his family got on a train and went to Hot Springs, Arkansas where they were met by Mr. Wells who brought a team and hooked onto his wagon and they drove about 40 miles to a beautiful place in the Arkansas hills known as Montgomery County where he homesteaded a farm a mile north of Mr. Wells. He later made another trip to West Virginia and then back to Arkansas. He went by covered wagon that time and it took them three weeks to go from Arkansas to West Virginia.

Nancy Drewry said when she was a little girl living in Montgomery County she remembered a place called Crystal Mountain and it seemed to her that there was a big mountain of the Crystal Formations glittering and glistening in the sunlight.

During one of the Shockey reunions, several of the people attending visited the Shockey Cemetery and the Shockey Chapel that Jacob built. Jacob was a very religious man, he loved to talk and sing about his God. He would play the accordion and sing about God wherever he went. He traveled quite a bit in later years to see his children and he usually went by bus. If he had to wait for a bus, he'd take out his accordion and play about his living God.

                       viii.    McAfee Alexander Robbins, born 10 Apr 1843 in Murray Co., GA; died 03 Jun 1903 in Montgomery Co., AR; married (1) Frances Evit Vaught 22 Dec 1868 in Williamson Co., TX; born 1849 in Gordon Co., GA; died 15 Feb 1884 in Montgomery Co., AR; married (2) Sarah Caroline Petty 06 Sep 1885 in Montgomery Co., AR; born 20 Nov 1864 in Black Springs Montgomery Co., AR; died 28 Apr 1915 in Mongtomery Co., Ark. 

MacAfee or "Mack" as everyone knew him was born to Thomas and Mary Bates Robins on April 10, 1843 in Murray County, Georgia.  He moved with his family to Montgomery County in 1849 and lived on the family farm.  He fought in the Civil War in the 33 Regiment, Arkansas Infantry Company I, Confederate States Army.  He volunteered early in the war, but because of his youth, he was placed in the Home Guard much to his chagrin.  He considered the Home Guard for old men or for men with large families, but not for him.  He showed up one morning at his brother Jack's (Andrew Jackson) regiment, Churchills Division, while it was on a dress parade for inspection, in a Yankee uniform.  He was about to be shot on site when Jack a Captain in that regiment, realized with horror that the Yankee uniform contained his younger brother MacAfee.  Captain Jack Robins yelled at his men to hold their fire, grabbed the young imposter, and marched him to his commanding officer.  Pleading "don't let them shoot him - he is my crazy brother.  I can't explain the uniform, but he is not a Yankee -- he wants to join our regiment."  Needless to say, he did not get shot, but the story goes that he never told how he got the Yankee uniform.  He was enlisted then and there and served the rest of the war in the 33 Arkansas Regiment.  This information was contributed by Maida Milam Jaggers, a grand daughter of Mack.  After the war, Mack moved to TX and married Everett Frances Vaught on December 22, 1868.  All the children were born in TX and after 1882 the family moved back to Montgomery County, Arkansas.  In 1884, Fannie died because of a difficult child birth.  The baby died during the birth and the next day, Fannie died.  Mack placed Fannie and the baby in the same coffin and buried them.  The grave is next to the old Methodist Church on Highway 27 in Caddo Gap.  Fannie (Vaught) Robins headstone is the only one left in that cemetery.   Mack with his three sons, Clate, Arl, Bud, and son in law Bob Hicks, cleared the right of way for the Kansas City Southern Railway, from Mena to Texarkana around the mid or later 1890's.  Part of this information is provided by Octavia Robins Green.

Notes for Julius Bates:

Information from the Bates of Georgia Web site, by Richard Bates: 

Julius Bates was born June 3, 1780. He is believed to have been born in

Greenville, South Carolina. On census records he listed his birth place as South

Carolina. His parentage has not been proven, and there a great many of his

descendants seeking this information. Some descendants think that the father is

James Bates, based on census records only, others think his father is John Bates,

based on family lore, still others think that it is William Bates. It is known that

he married Temperence West about 1802 in Greenville, South Carolina. The

other facts are, he had one brother and one sister that have been proven to

date.  

Other facts known about Julius Bates are, that he bought 287 acres of land on

the North Fork of the Oconee River in 1814 with Isabelle McCleskey in Jackson

County, Georgia. It is not known, the relationship between Julius and Isabelle,

but she was apparently old enough to be his mother or aunt? Isabelle's maiden

name is unknown also, but her husband was George W. McCleskey. In the 1820

census of Hall County, Georgia (formed from Jackson County in 1818) she was

living next door to him. She is believed to have died in 1821, in Hall County. This

is a mystery and perhaps provides some valuable clues. Julius moved his family

from South Carolina to Jackson County, Georgia circa 1815. Julius had some type

of military service, as he received a land grant from the Governor of Georgia in

1821,for 250 acres in Early County, Georgia for his service in " Dickson's

Battalion." It is not known what type of service he performed, but since the land

was ceded by the Creek Indians, it is believed that his service was in the Indian

Wars, or in the Georgia Militia. He moved his entire family in 1832 to Murray

County, Georgia as a result of the Cherokee Land Lottery. It is unknown how

many draws or how many grants Julius and his sons received in the lottery. The

Pioneer Bates Family was one of the first white families to settle in Murray

County. It is known that Julius acquired and purchased a considerable amount of

acreage in Murray County. 

Julius Bates was a very prosperous farmer and by 1860 is believed to have owned

2,400 acres or 15 sections. He also owned 10 slaves, and Julius and Temperence

raised 13 children, 10 sons and 3 daughters. Five of his sons and 14 of his

grandsons were Confederate Soldiers in the Civil War. Julius Bates died on

February 17, 1864 and his wife Temperence died June 10, 1868 at their home

place in Murray County. They are buried beside each other at the Julius Bates

Cemetery 2 1/2 miles north of Eton, Georgia off highway 411. 

Julius Bates had five sons and fourteen grandsons who were Confederate Soldiers in the "War Between the States". His family and the families of his children were rather fortunate. His brother General John Bates and his related families suffered and endured much greater losses. The Bates Brothers also had a sister Elizabeth Bates Jackson whose descendants were also Confederates. Many of the related families of the Bates Siblings also had related Confederates and Allied Confederate Soldiers. All five of Julius' sons, and eleven of his fourteen grandsons also survived. Three grandsons were lost to the "Civil War".

Notes for Jacob Shockey:

History of Washington County, Independence Township, Jacob Shockey and wife were members of the Methodist Organization sometime before 1843. The Methodist meetings were held as circumstances permitted, which resulted in organization comprising members of the area, including Abraham Decker and wife, Jacob Shockey and wife and Wm. Chapman and wife.

In checking census records and deeds, Jacob was about 22 years old when he and his father moved to Fayette County, PA, and married his first wife about 1829. Then he moved to Ohio about 1834. Later Jacob moved to Barbour County, VA (WV) about 1856. Jacob married his second wife, Minerva Haynes, in Independence Township, Washington County, Ohio. The ceremony was by the Reverend Thomas Ferguson.

Jacob was a farmer and had to have been a good one to have three wives and thirteen children, all raised to be men and women. As has been stated Jacob done his part to multiply the world with Shockeys.

So it was that on the 31 of March 1903, Jacob Shockey passed over the great divide.

Notes for Abraham Shockey:

He could have been born in either York Co. or Bucks Co. PA. His father moved to Cumberland Co. PA when he was 8, receiving a Patent for 57 1/4 acres of land, known as Walnut Bottom. He enlisted in the 6th Regiment Maryland Troops, on March 10, 1777 and may have deserted Sept 3, 1777 going to the Territory of Ohio and disappeared for 7 years. In 1847 He and his son Jacob are listed on the polling list of Independence Township, Washington Co., OH. In 1850 Abraham is shown as living with his daughter Rachel and her husband, Peter Kemp and their children. He is listed as living with his daughter Catherine where he died. 

!Information from "Shockey History and Genealogy" by Ralph N. and Marie F. Shockey. Volume II, page 754, reference number 8. 

To follow the life of Abraham Shockey is like following the Wild Goose. To begin with he could have been born in either York County or Bucks County, Pennsylvania. This depending on the exact date his father moved to York County, Pennsylvania. When Abraham Shockey was about 8 years old his father moved to Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Here his father received a Patent for 57 1/4 acres of land known as Walnut Bottom, which later became part of Franklin County, Pennsylvania. Later he moved to Frederick County, Maryland (later to be known as Washington County, Maryland). Here it is believed Abraham lived until age 22 years old. From his Army records: Abraham Shockey age 22, enlisted 6th Regiment Maryland Troops, March 10, 1777, deserted. After Abraham deserted the Army it is believed he went to the Territory of Ohio. Now 7 years have passed did Abraham stay in the Ohio Territory, during this 7 years. Here many questions could be asked. According to Christian Shockey's Army records his brother (no name mentioned) returned from Ohio to attend the wedding of Christian Shockey to Mary Welsh (Walsh) in September 1784. Again from Abraham Shockey's military records list the following: Military lots Ledger A. Lot 1002 Abraham Shockey 1- lot# 1002-50 acres Frederick County, Maryland (now Garrett County, Maryland) 1781-1784. Box 12, Folder 30 and 31. Abraham Shockey received lot #1002 with Fraudulent Papers 1782, May 2, no pay to Abraham Shockey. Where was Abraham from 1777 to 1784? When you read the following deed you will note that 27 years passed before it was recorded.

We found no record to back up this statement up.  

DEED At the request of Abraham Shockey the following deed was recorded in Liber C, Page 103 of the land records of Allegany County, Maryland. Part of this deed is (not readable). This indenture made this first day of June in the year of Our Lord One Thousand Seven hundred and Ninety-nine between Jacob Storm of Allegany County, State of Maryland a farmer of the one part and Abraham Shockey of County and State aforesaid farmer of the Other Part witnessth that said Jacob Storm for an in consideration of the sum of one hundred pounds Current money of Maryland to him in hand paid by the said Abraham Shockey before the enseciling and delivery of these presents the receipt where of is here by acknowledged he the said Jacob Storm hath given, Granted, Bargained, Sold, and Confirmed unto the said Abraham Shockey one hundred acres of Land with all Appurtenances.

The 1800 Census did and later it became District #2. This area became part of Garrett County, Maryland when it was formed in 1877. According to the Census Records and Abraham's records all but three of his children were born here.  

2nd DEED IN PART The following deed was recorded on the 19th day of March 1828 at the request of John Slice and recorded Liber O, Page 52, in the land records of Allegany County, Maryland.

This indenture shows Abraham has left Allegany County is next found in Mt. Pleasant Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania where he owned three hundred acres of land. In 1847 Abraham Shockey and his son Jacob Shockey are listed on the Polling list of Independence Township, Washington County, Ohio.  

Here are copies of two statements, one signed by Ira Shockey and one by Henry Shockey. The following is copied from a letter my nephew received from a Wm. A. Shockey of College Park MD., dated April 2, 1963. We, who are of the name Shockey, may sometimes wonder where our people came from, what land, and when. Well, we can thank one of the second generation, by the name of Ira Shockey, for that information. He leaves a short history of what he knew of his mother's people. 

"I was born in Ohio, near Marietta, Nov. 8, 1843, a son of Jacob Shockey. He was a son of Abraham Shockey, who with his wife, came from Germany before the Revolutionary War. They settled in Pennsylvania, near Uniontown, where my father was born and reared. After my father got married, a colony moved to Ohio, near Lake Erie; his father and mother going along. It being sickly, or unhealthy up there, my father lost his wife. "After a time, all who lived moved to Eastern Ohio, 20 miles above Marietta. There my father married one of two girls who came from New York. Doctor Valentine married Abby Haynes, and my father married Minerva Haynes, the older sister, who was my mother. These two are all that I ever saw or knew of my mother's people. "I had one sister and two brothers, one older that I, the other younger, Mary Jane, my sister, being the eldest child. Signed: Ira Shockey  

Also the following from Wm. A. Shockey of College Park, MD. written by his father Henry J. Shockey, Son of Franciscous, younger brother of Ira Shockey. "That being the end of history which I have, may I say the sister married a man named Fisher, and that they lived at Wheeling, W. Va. The other brother lived at Moundsville, W. Va. and the younger brother, who was the writer's father lived the most of his life in Barbour County, The uncle who left the name, or history, lived the most of his life in Randolph County, and their father, Jacob Shockey, lived his last years in Barbour County numbering between 97 and 98. We do not know how many children Abraham Shockey had. Jacob Shockey was married to a third wife. The first brought forth to him three children, two boys and a daughter, whose names were Henry, Squire, and Deliah. Then the second wife; four children; three sons and one daughter, named Gifford, Ira, Franciscous, and Mary Jane. The third wife outlived him, gave birth to six children, five daughters and a son. The names were: Elizabeth, Ellen, Emily, Belle, John and Rebeckey the last two being twins. Now Jacob Shockey did his part in multiplying and replenishing the earth, and there are some of his offspring who did very well; there being about 125 names on the list when the late John Shockey's estate was settled. This being as true as my memory serves me.

Signed Respectfully yours, Henry Shockey  

Note: This Henry Shockey was the father of Wm. A. Shockey, and Franciscous the grandfather. Copied by: Ruth J. Shockey, 1323 Chapel Pike, Marion, Indiana 46952 Here we must set the record straight on the above two statements. First, Abraham was born 1755 in Pennsylvania, and we believe he was born in York County, Second his son Jacob Shockey, according to our research and census records was born July 18, 1806 in Allegany County, Maryland which is now Garrett County, Maryland. Notice that in Ira Shockey's statement, he states that they settled near Uniontown, Pennsylvania. Now look on a state map of Pennsylvania, and you will see Mt. Pleasant on Route 119 about 20 miles north of Uniontown. When Mt. Pleasant was a township it could have even included Uniontown or very close to it. Most townships at that time were as large as counties, so let us take the rest of these two statements as true. Now follow the Monongahela River north to Belle Vernon. Here it is stated Jacob's Creek Church, Free Will Baptist April 1843, Belle Vernon, Westmoreland, County, Pennsylvania, Among the 12 persons which constituted the Church was Catherine Shockey. In 1850 Abraham Shockey is listed in the census records as living with his daughter, Catherine Shockey, who was married to Bernard Donley, Abraham was listed as 96. Abraham held on to life as long as he could, yet each has his or her time to go, son on the Jan. 20, Abraham Shockey crossed the great divide. Abraham died in Fearing Township, Washington County, Ohio and is buried in Stanleyville Cemetery in a grave marked as a Revolutionary Soldier, Row 12 and 7.

Mary Brooks, born Abt. 1745 in PA. 

Notes for Jacob Hollingsworth:

This family came from PA to Rutherford Co., NC and moved to FranklinCo., GA in 1790.

Georgia's boundaries in the 1700's can best be described as the wildfrontier. Between 1782 and 1797 various treaties were made with theIndians to define Georgia's boundaries. Forts were built to protectthe settlers who lived on the frontier. Indians were likely to beincited by misunderstandings. Horses and farm animals were frequentlystolen, and families had to be protected in fortress-type buildingssurrounded by wooden fences.

The first settlers of Franklin County whose lands granted by the Stateof Georgia between 1783 and 1788 lay north of the Indian Boundaryfixed by the treaty of 1785. These lands were granted under theimpression that they lay south of the agreed Indian boundary line.When this line was surveyed it was found that these lands lay north ofthe boundary line and in the Cherokee Nation, which demanded theirremoval.

William W. Wofford and Jacob Hollingsworth both moved from NorthCarolina to Franklin Co., Ga. before l792. Wofford's fort appeared onthe map in 1792 and Hollingsworth's in 1793. This area was known asWofford's Settlement.

When Col. Wofford found out that their settlement was considered to bein Indian territory after the line was surveyed, he along with the other settlers in this area petitioned Georgia Governor James Jacks onto have the line re-run or to take such other action as would protect them and the possessions of their homes.

Legend has it that he mounted his horse and rode to Washington to talkwith the authorities about his land holding in Georgia. This resultedin the "Four Mile Purchase" of 1804 when the Indians ceded a strip ofland 4 miles wide (from the Habersham and Banks County line on BaldwinMountain to the Line Baptist Church on Hwy. 441) and 23 miles long (extending from Curahee Mountain to the head waters of the SouthOconee River) which included the Wofford Settlement. It was originally marked by a line of felled trees at least twenty feet wide which became a sort of no man's land. The United States agreed to pay the Cherokee Indians $5,000 and $1,000 per annum for the property rights.

By about 1796 the Indian troubles were about over and the need for the string of frontier forts was no longer pressing. The forts, after the need for defense subsided, became log farmhouses.

The Wofford's and the Hollingsworth's traveled together to newfrontiers in the west using passports to travel through Indianterritory. As the years passed many of their descendants would packup their belongings, taking wives, children, slaves and animals andmove west, as genealogy records show. Fort Hollingsworth was left onthese vacant lands.

In Habersham County Inferior Court setting as a land court May Term1855, William B. Wofford, son of Nathaniel Wofford, grandson ofWilliam W. Wofford, petitioned the court for a head right warrant forvacant lands. He received a grant from the state on Oct. 2, 1855. Hesold this property to Col. Robert McMillan on April 18, 1857. FortHollingsworth was on this property.

Hollingsworth Fort was first shown on a map of the Defensive PlanWestern Frontier, Franklin County in 1793. 

Children of Jacob Hollingsworth and Mary Brooks are:

Notes for Johann Christoffel Schacke:

!BIOGRAPHY: "Shockey Chronicles" by Donald Shockey

JOHANN CHRISTOFFEL SCHACKE was born in the Palatinate area of Germany about 1714.

He arrived in America on the ship Snow Molly that had sailed from Amsterdam by way of Dover, England. He landed in Philadelphia on 10 September 1737 and took the oath of allegiance. That document is on file in Philadelphia. The Germans came to this country for various reasons, some for religious freedom, some to avoid military service and some just for the pure adventure of beginning life in a new country! He settled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania in an Amish Community. He first received a land grant of 100 acres sometime later he got 10 Acres more in Cumberland County. In 1768, he was given a land grant of 1820 acres by Lord Fairfax. It was called the Third Survey of Sarah's Delight. The original document is on file in Annapolis, Maryland. In 1765 the Mason and Dixon Line had divided this property so that part of his land was in Maryland and part was in Pennsylvania. In 1769 John Christopher sold several hundred acres to his sons Valentine, John, Jacob and to Philip Stombaugh, the husband on his daughter Magdalene. Valentine paid 50 pounds for 200 acres, John received 132 acres and Jacob received 200 acres for the same price. Philip Stombaugh paid 200 pounds for 150 acres. On our Reunion Tour we show you where the 1820 acres lie and where Valentine's house stood, Shockey Station Road and where Shockey Station stood. John Christopher Shockey was well educated for that time and it appears that his sons were too. His will was beautifully hand written in German and signed by him. His wife was named Barbara. He had six sons and three daughters. Barbara evidently died about 1772 or 1773 for in 1773 he married Anna Maria Compton, a widow with a daughter Catherine. Catherine took the Shockey name. There was probably one child, Samuel, from that marriage.

Christopher lived to be about 82 years of age. He and his children were probably strong, sturdy individuals. They lived a hard and rugged life in a new country that was mostly a wilderness in those times. They were part of the Revolutionary War and the French and Indian War. Their descendants are in most every state in the union. Those are the folks who meet each year at the Annual National Shockey Reunion. John Christopher Shockey died 10 DEC 1796. After his death, Anna Maria married George McClellan. She lived to the age of 105.

Info from Lesley L. Shockey 17 Nov 1999 "lshockey@citynet.net"

Was born with the name of Johann Christoffel Schacke. Left Germany in about 1737 and went to Amsterdam, Holland where he boarded the ship SNOW MOLLY and sailed for the US, making one stop in Dover England and landed in Philadelphia Pennsylvania on 10 Sept 1737. He lived in Milford Township, PA from 1738 until 1753, Mannheim Township, PA 1754-1762, Cumberland Co. PA 1763-1765, Frederick Co. MD 1766-1774 and Mt. Pleasant, Westmoreland Co. PA 1775-1796 where he died He changed the spelling of his name because the area was under British rule and the German spelling would stand out.

He received a land grant for 1820 acres of land from the Governor of Maryland in 1774.

Will was probated in July 1775. 

THE LIFE OF JOHANN CHRISTOFFEL SCHACKE

ALIAS JOHN CHRISTOPHER SHOCKEY

OUR FATHER

Johann Christoffel Schacke was born about 1715, it is believed in that part of Germany known as Palatinate. Palatinate - The name of two powerful electorates of the Holy Roman Empire . In the beginning Amberg was the capital of Upper Palatinate. Mannheim as the capital of the Lower Palatinate. The Palatinates were one political unit until the early 1600's. They were part of the Old German Empire. These states were known as Upper and Lower Palatinate. The German name given for Palatinate is Pflaz and once referred to the name of the Emperor's Castle. As early as 1,000's powerful Princes of Germany, Called the Counts Palatinates owned the Palatinates and their districts.

These two states were separated in 1648 by the Peace of Westphalia. The Upper Palatinate being given to Bavaria. The other became a separate electorate. This being the Lower Palatinate was on both sides of the Rhine River. At a later date or the end of the Napolionic War, this Palatinate was given in part to Baden, Hesse - Dermstadt, Prussia and Bavaria received the largest portion. These two countries had an area of about 6,000 square miles and a population of about 1,600, 000. Regensburg, now the Capital of the Upper Palatinate, has a population of about 117,000. This was known as part of Bavaria. Speyer now being the capital of the Lower Palatinate had a population of about 3,500 and was part of the Rhineland Palatinate. After World War II with administrative changes the Palatinate was placed under French administration and was in the Rhine Palatinate land.

(Researched and submitted for this history by Miss Ruth J. Shockey, 1323 Chapel Pike, Marion, Indiana.)

We, having visited the Lower Palatinate section for several weeks about 8 years ago, found it to be very productive in garden produce and grapes. We also found that wine made from these grapes was quite delicious and pleasing to the taste. On visiting and talking with the German people we found them most anxious to please and to have contact with those from America. Another outstanding remark that was said, and in most cases the word please was used - please keep the United States Military in Germany.

It is not known why Johann left his homeland, not even the date or time of the year. For some times it took days or weeks just to reach a sea port. During this period of time you were considered the property of your lord and master. You were his to command, to fight his wars, till his soils and infact you were his slave. By this you now know it was not easy to get permission to leave one's country. You were even taxed to help support your lord and Master.

There were many reason why Johann and others wanted to come to America, religion, war service, adventure and freedom were probably most of the reasons yet there are many others, as some were sent to American as undesirables.

To get to a sea port could also cause the migrant a lot of trouble, for at the boundry of each lord's property were guards. These guards would search your belongings and sometimes you were taxed on what you had. If your pass was not strictly in order you could be turned back and not allowed to proceed. Then there were highway men, plunderers, and many others just waiting to take the migrant for everything he had, even may be his life. After reaching a sea port his troubles were far from being over, for it could be months before he could get passage to America. Here again, he could be robbed or even shanghaied and end up in the China Sea or on some south sea island.

Now that we know that Johann Christoffel Schacke has left his native land and now arrived in the port in Amsterdam, Holland, without being robbed or murdered, we find he has now found passage on the ship Snow Molly. Hence you could say Johann's troubles on land were over, but not so, for he could have had months to wait before his ship either arrived from another port or waiting for the weather to change on the North Sea.

The North Sea was, and still is, a very stormy and dangerous sea, not only for the small sailing vessels of Johann's day but also for the large steamships of today. In fact Holland today has a fleet of rescue ships patroling the shores along that section of the North Sea.

Then came Johann's big day. The day of the sailing of the Snow Molly, carrying 95 German migrants from the Palatinates of Germany, with John Powell Master of the Ship Snow Molly and on their way to the land of freedom, America

On leaving the Port of Amsterdam, Holland it had to sail north on the Zuider Zee passing the island of Urk and Weinringen, then entering into the North Sea at Den Helder, leaving the island of Texel to the north and south of latitude 57. Here they turned south heading for the straits of Dover and making Dover, England their first and only stop. It is not known how long it took to make this trip. It could take days, weeks, or even months for here the sea could be stormy and rough or even a calm, with no breeze to sail. They could lay at sea for days without going anywhere.

These ships were small and even the largest was no master of the waters they sailed on. This then made it necessary to carry water and food for all of those aboard ship, with an extra supply for the unexpected.

This food consisted mostly of salt meat, cheese, peas, bread or biscuits, which I believe was called ship biscuits. This was in addition to butter, flour, sugar, and dried fruit. Both crewman and passengers received the same distribution of food, the food being distributed generally once a week.

There could have been several reasons for stopping at Dover, England. They had already been at sea for sometime and probably needed to replenish their water and food supply. Dover, England was where a lot of ships started from so they could have a fleet of 50 or more ships sailing together to cross the Atlantic Ocean for the safety of their crew and passengers.

When these ships would leave Dover, they went south through the straits of Dover, and then steering towards the Azores and sometimes siting the islands of Flores and Corves. From here they would then set a course to America. The trip to America, it seems, was never an easy one and many a sailor prayed he would never have to make another trip across the Atlantic Ocean. In accordance with the records there were days the weather was so bad, they could not have a fire to cook with and all their food that was eaten was cold. Then there were days when the waters were calm and no winds so they could not sail. On these days and being in a fleet with other ships, they would visit with each other. It would be hard to estimate the number of weeks or months it took them to reach America, yet most did finally reach the shores of America, from the most Northern to the most Southern part.

Then came the big day in the life of Johann Christoffel Schacke! The ship Snow Molly arrived in the Port of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 10 Sep. 1737, and he had finally reached America. It was here on this same day, he being a migrant, found it necessary to report to the immigration authorities and also to pledge allegiance to the crown. In so doing Johann being German and the authorities English, he obtained an alias name John Christopher Shockey. From that time on he went mostly by the name Christopher Shockey.

Most German migrants, though not wealthy had enough money to have time to get started when and where they wanted to be. So it appears was the case of John Christopher Shockey.

Next we come to his wife Barbara ? Our search has not revealed her surname nor has any marriage record been found. This leads you to wonder if he brought his wife with him from Germany or did he meet her on board ship and marry at sea, or did he meet her in Philidalphia and marry her there? Was she an Indian maiden and married under tribal indian laws? I was always told I was part Indian. I would like to know if this is true.

These are the children of John Christopher Shockey and his wife Barbara ? as are listed in his original will written by him in German. It has been stated he had a son Samuel Shockey by his second wife Maria. No proof of this has been found. Yet it could be true.

In this research no record of John Christopher Shockey was found after taking the Oath to the Crown, until December 4, 1740, when Warrant No.82 was issued by the Proprietaries of Pennsylvania for 100 acres of land situated in Upper Milford Township in the said county Bucks, Pennsylvania. This land was surveyed on November 2 1741 for 104 acres. Yet it is certified Christopher never completed this patent.

It must be noted that early German settlers who came to America ignored British law, and because of this, many English men claimed the land and collected taxes on it, to make themselves rich. The Germans printed their own newspapers. The English also printed one in English, plus one in German from about 1700 through 1850.

John Christopher Shockey came to America from Germany and entered through the port of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1737. He apparently traveled north and settled in the northwestern part of Bucks County in the township of Milford. At this time there were no northern boundaries to Bucks County or Milford Township. They extended as far north as they were settled.

Eventually the area became known as Upper and Lower Milford township. As the population grew, other townships were formed. Later other counties such as Northampton, Lehigh and Pike were also formed. With what little information is available, it appears that Christopher settled somewhere in Milford Township and it is recorded that he received a warrant in 1740 for 100 acres in what is now Pike County but was then the northern part of Bucks County. This warrant was surveyed but never patented.

I live in Bucks County and am excited every time I realize that our great Shockey family had its roots there through Christopher, his wife Barbara, and their four sons, Valentine, John, Jacob, and Isaac, who were born there. These Shockeys spent about 17 years somewhere in Bucks County and that is really all that is known now. Lacking a specific location, I attempted to find out what Bucks County was like during that time. I'd like to share with you a brief look at the evolution of this area so that we might have some idea of what the land and life was like when the Shockeys came to, and lived in, Bucks County.

Let's go back 10,000 years B.C. At that time the first man known to inhabit Bucks County put in an appearance. He was called the Paleo (prehistoric) Indian man who had originally crossed the Bering Strait and migrated throughout the American continent. He as a hunter, lived in temporary shelter and was constantly on the move. He carried a short spear with a crude stone point. He knew the use of fire for cooking.

Between 10,000 and 8,000 years B.C. the immigration continued and intensified and the county became sparsely populated. A different way of life developed. More plant foods were used. Acorns and seeds were ground into a type of flour. More stone tools evolved. The next period of development stretched from 8,000 to 1,000 B.C. the Archaic Epoch. Life changes took place. Pottery cooking vessels and primitive tools came into being. Small villages grew when they learned to cultivate the land. They exchanged ideas, and other cultural development came from the Southwest and Mexico.

The period from 1,000 B.C. to the 17th century is called by historians the Woodland Epoch. The culture that existed then is that which the white man first encountered. In Bucks County this culture was characterized by the Lenni Lenape Indians. They lived a migratory life and moved with the seasons between the planting grounds near temporary villages and hunting grounds in the mountains. They were intelligent, peace loving, and generally friendly. Their migratory life opened many trails which they introduced to the early white man. Many of our local roads follow these old trails. Old York Road is one of these. Part of Old York Road is now Route 202, an important eastwest highway across northern Bucks County. If you look at a Bucks County map, you will see many names that demonstrate the influence of the Lenape Indians names like Perkasie, Neshaminy, Tohickon and Nockamixon.

The first white explorers in the area were Dutch and came up the Delaware in 1614 led by Captain Key. In 1654 Peter Lindstrom, a Swedish explorer, mapped the area and left Swedish settlers behind.

The British displaced the Swedish in 1664 when Sir Robert Carr took possession of both the east and west banks of the Delaware.

There was much rivalry between the Dutch, Swedish, and English but in 1675 the British Empire was firmly established and subsequent development in the Delaware Valley was oriented toward English tradition. There were settlements in New Jersey and to the south of Bucks County but the first recorded settlement in Bucks County was a Quaker settlement in 1679 on the west bank of the Delaware at the falls north of where Morrisville is now located. It was called the "Falls of Delaware" or Crewcorne.

In 1681 Charles II King of England formally granted a tract of land to William Penn. It became the province of Pennsylvania. Penn set out to purchase the land from the Indians, hoping to promote peace between them and the settlers.

The first purchase in 1682 included the land we now call Bucks County and the land on which Penn's Manor was to be built. Warrants were issued for the survey of Bucks County and land to the south was sought for what was to become Philadelphia. About this time the province of Pennsylvania was divided into only three counties - Bucks, Philadelphia and Chester. This was the real beginning of the colonization of the land that the Shockeys came to in 1737. The first organized religious meeting in Bucks County were Quaker meetings at the Falls of Delaware in 1683.

In the early 1700's great numbers of Scotch-Irish immigrants took advantage of Penn's offer of a haven for religious freedom and came to Pennsylvania. They were predominantly Presbyterian and settled in Central and Upper Bucks County. In 1710 A Dutch minister, Paulus Van Vlecq, under the auspices of the Philadelphia Presbytery, established a church at Bensalem. It was the first permanent religious establishment in Bucks County other than the Quakers or Society of Friends at the Falls of Delaware. By 1737 when Christopher arrived, there were recognized Presbyterian churches at Bensalem, Neshaminy and Deep Run.

A German Lutheran congregation was founded in Milford Township as early as 1734, In 1725 Valentine Clemmer, a Mennonite clergyman, gathered a congregation around him in Milford Township . These were some of the earliest Germans to seek refuge in Pennsylvania from persecution in Europe. Early politicians (1750) became concerned that the Germans in Northern Bucks County were becoming a majority that might soon lead to a majority in the legislature of the province of Pennsylvania. This was one of the primary facts that led to the creation of the county of Northampton. It was carved out of the northern part of Bucks County, as was Lehigh County in 1812 and Pike County in 1832.

What did the early Shockeys face when they arrived It was a hard life. Whatever the new settler's previous occupations had been, they were forced to till the soil in order to subsist. The land presented difficult problems in clearing the forest and rocks. The first house built by a new settler was usually a small crude log cabin with a dirt floor. As the ground was cleared, crops were planted for food.

It took-many years of clearing land, raising food crops, clearing more land and adding to the original cabin, room by room, before the Picturesque farmhouse of today's Bucks County landscape finally evolved. The crops were wheat, oats, grass, potatoes, and Indian corn. Roads were poor, sometimes impassible Travel was difficult. The Delaware River was a barrier and most east-west roads led to one of the ferries including Coryell's Ferry at New Hope, McConkey' s at Washington Crossing and Yardley Ferry at Yardley. Early industry included the gristmill and sawmill operations. Other needs were provided by local craftsmen such as blacksmiths, potters, weavers, and saddlers who farmed in addition to carrying out their trades.

The shipbuilding industry was established in Bristol. The Durham Iron works in northern Bucks County was in operation in 1727.

Outlaws and bands of renegade Indians were still occasionally terrorizing settlers. It was not an easy life, but the settlers' commitment was strong they believed William Penn when he promised "All persons living in this province who confess and admit to the one Almighty and Eternal God to be the creator, 'upholder and ruler of the world .... shall in no way be molested or prejudiced for their religious persuasion or practice in matters of faith and worship, nor shall they be compelled at any time to frequent or maintain any religious worship place or minister whatever .... but shall freely and fully enjoy his or her Christian liberty without interruption or reflection."

Thus came the Shockeys.

Researched and written by John Charles Shockey Sr., 17 Fairway Drive, Yardley, Pennsylvania and released by him for this history.

It is believed that Christopher and Barbara lived in Milford Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania until the French and Indian War 1754-1763. About 1754 they moved to York County, Pennsylvania where warrent no. 4704 was issued to Christopher Shockey in Mannheim Township for 100 a cres of land. The land justification was dated December 16, 1758. It was here that their last two children were born, Abraham in 1755 and Christian in 1756. Their first son, Valentine was married to Barbara Bixler in 1756.

You can imagine what a difficult time they had just trying to survive in a wild virgin country; they were German, the powers were English, the country was full of Indians. The settlers lived in cabins built of logs, often only one room with a dirt floor and no windows, the furniture made of logs and fastened to the walls. Some lived in covered wagons and others only had a horse and saddle pack. Christopher and Barbara managed to survive all the hard ships of those times and raise and educate six boys and three girls. Their children went on to raise families of their own and most lived to be quite old. Abraham lived to be 105. You can be prou dof your ancestory and the name Shockey for you come from good stock.

Just when Christopher Shockey and his family left York County is not known as of this writing, but it is believed to be about 1763.

The next record found of Christopher and his family was in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Here is a warrant no. 209 was issued 20 September 1765 in favor of Christopher Shockey for 30 acres in Antrim Townships, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. This land was surveyed on September 25 1767 for 57 1/2 acres and was not patented. On December 5, 1794, Christopher Shockey' s son Jacob Shockey patented the above survey and warrant no. 209, which became known as Walnut Bottom.

You should know something about this section of the country during this period from the 1700 to 1775 or even later. A great number of settlers did not know what state or county they lived in which caused great confusion, and a state of war existed between the settlers. It even became necessary at times for the sheriff to organize an army of his own to quiet the settlers down. Finally William Penn Governor of the Province of Pennsylvania, and Lord Baltimore Governor of the Province Maryland agreed to a settlement of state line by survey called the Mason-Dixon line which still divides the two states today.

This section of Maryland and Pennsylvania where the Shockey's settled at about this time was called the barrens. It consisted of mostly of bushes and wild crabapple trees, with no roads and only indian or wild animals trails to follow. This made it necessary to "pack" ones belongings to where ever he should go.

It should be remembered that Frederick, Maryland did not come into existence until 1775, and history states that Chambersburg, Pennsylvania was on the edge of the wilderness. Also it has been stated only here and there in all the territory was there a slight trace of human habitation. It was also stated the indian were still there and were friendly, except when they got drunk.

Prior to the year 1771, there has been no record of Christopher and his family having any major troubles. It appears that he was a farmer and that they all lived a normal life for the times they lived in. Then about this time three of Christopher's horses were stolen--2 horses and one mare. In the process of trying to recover these horses, it appears that both Christopher and one of his sons got the name of being horse thieves and the son was put in jail. No record is found as to which son it was. From the following deed and letter, it is judged that Christopher had to sell land to pay the bond necessary to release his son from jail.

Christopher Shockey's Complaint concerning Mr. Justice Rannels, Jan. 19, 1771.

The Following "complaint concerning Mr. Justice Rennels," as the letter is endorsed, forms interesting reading taken in connection with the sketches of the early Provincial Justices "West of Susquahannah," the letter is addressed "To Mr. Attorney General for Cumberland County, " whoever he was at the time.

Sir: As you are constituted Attorney General for Cumberland County, in Pennsylvania, and as all Infractions of the Law properly fall within your Sphere, the Illegal 'usage and Treatment which I have received at the hands of Justice Reynolds oblige me to lay before you the subsequent complaint, and in order to give you a right Idea of the present case, I was indebted to a certain Storekeeper, of the aforesaid county in the sum of seventeen pounds six shillings by a balanced Acc't Y'r complainant is an Inhabitant of Maryland. My Creditor took the following Method to obtain his debt, tho' I never refused to pay the same. He procured some evil disposed people to steal two horses and one mare out of 'my enclosures in Maryland in the dead time of night secured the same, and sent for the constable of the Hundred, in Pennsylvania, and carried them off. Two days after my creatures were thus clandestinely carried away (or rather stolen), word was sent me by the Constable that three creatures of mine were executed by him at the suit of a certain George Mencer. Mr. Reynolds was pleased to Issue Summons for me to appear before him, which I refused to do.

Now, good Sir, you will please to observe, 'upon running the Proprietary Line (which is not yet determined) my House and some part of Land fell into Pennsylvania, and as we are still obliged to pay Tax and Rent to the proprietary and Government of Maryland, I conceived that I was not compellable by any jurisdiction of y'r Province to obey his usurped Authority. My non-compliance, I presume, piqued his Worship, so that he proceeded forth with to burden me in the most expensive manner he could devise. The debt he divided into seven shares, which made the costs sevenfold. I should have mentioned before, that upon notice given me where my Horses were, I went to the Constable and offered him two good Free holders of Maryland as Bail for the Paym't of the Debt if he would deliver me the horses, which he refused, thoo I cannot therein blame the Constable. Being reduced to such hard circumstances, and unable to seed my Grain for want of Horses, I thought it no Trespass to recover my creatures, which were surreptitiously taken from me in a forceable manner by breaking the stable door and taking them thereout. My son who was an accomplice in the act, some time after artfully apprehended. After taking they tyed him with cords and brought him before Justice Reynolds, who I conceive, would have committed him, had I not sent a 40 pound Bond by way of Releasm't Now, Sir, I have given you a particular Relation of all the material parts of my complaint, and as you are a gentle-man well versed in the Law, and as those mal Practices may occasion some severe Reflections on the Hon'r of Y'r Government, tis hoped that you will punish such unjustifiable strides of Power, that it may be a caution for the future to all Magistrates, and to confine them within their due Bounds, I am, Sir, with all due Difference and Respect, y'r most H'ble and most obed't serv't.

Chris Shockey

P.S. --- The veracity of the above Narrative (If requested thereto) I will --- appear by man of Probiety and Character.

After the "horse stealing", there came a greater tradgedy to the Shockey family. Though there is no definite date, it is believed that Christopher's wife Barbara, died in or about 1771 , and is buried in an old cemetery on the Shockey plantation. There is today, on the Johnson Farm adjoining the lands Valentine owned, a cemetery with a stone wall around it, containing about 80 graves. All of the tombstones have been removed or destroyed. It is not known which Shockeys are buried there.

On May 31, 1773 when Christopher Signs a deed and sells 183 acres of land is when it is found that he has a second wife, Maria or Mary; for she joins in this deed. By this marriage, Christopher gained a daughter Catherine. She is the daughter of Maria by a previous marriage.

Part III: The Paternal Ancestors of John Lincoln Shockey

From German Peasant to American Revolutionary War Soldier

John Christopher Shockey was born about 1715 in the Palatinate of Germany and came to America around. The family took up residence in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where many so-called Pennsylvania Dutch settled. (The name 'Pennsylvania Dutch' was used for the German immigrants. They identified themselves as 'Deutsch', which was mispronounced by the locals as 'Dutch'.) It is believed they were not Amish, since in his sixties, John Christopher served on the Colonists' side during the American Revolutionary War. But it is possible that because the Amish were also German, John Christopher might have had relatives in the colony, or perhaps he chose that location because his native German language was spoken there. His first wife was named Barbara, and they were married in 1738 in Germany. John Christopher and Barbara had 9 children:

1.Valentine, born in 1739 in Bucks County, PA (married Barbara Bixler, 1756)

in Orange Co North Carolina in 1755; also shows on page 22, James and Samuel

Bourn living in Beautfort Co North Carolina in 1741; the typewritten record

left out Joseph Boren, but the original record clearly shows that he lived in

Orange Co in 1755 near Charles and William Boring (see photocopy of the

original tax list for 1755).

RESIDENCE 1756: Orange County North Carolina Records, Vol II, Deed Books 1 &

2; abstracts, page 23; shows Joseph Boreing deed dated 1756.

RESIDENCE: Washington Co Tennessee land records show that he received a grant

from the state of North Carolina in 1784 along with his brothers, John, James,

and William. These same records show him as Joseph Boren Sr. selling his land

in 1792. This is about the time that Bazel Boren and Morgan Bryant Jr. claimed

land in the Robertson Co Tennessee area. It appears that Joseph Boren Sr.

moved with his sons. This grant was dated 10 Nov 1784 and is recorded in book

2 page 172. His name is spelled Joseph Barron. Joseph Barron Sr. sells land to

Walker Barron on 15 Jun 1792, book 5 page 128. Joseph Barron Sr. sells land to

William Ford on 9 Jun 1792, book 5 page 134. Birth place supposed from the

fact that the Borrins (Borens) don't appear in central North Carolina records

prior to the early 1750's.

NOTES: FHL film 24799 shows Joseph Boren Sr, released from paying pole tax for

the year 1797.

RESIDENCE-FAMILY: Joseph Boren, born abt 1705, had 10 children and

died 1775 in Orange Co North Carolina. Charles, William and Joseph

Boren are definitely proven to be brothers. They are probably sons

of Joseph Boring born abt 1681. Edmond Bowrin is a definite son

because of the location of his land.

Child of Joseph Boren is:
