June 1741

Isaac Shoemaker & Hannah Roberts are married in Pennsylvania.
Isaac Shoemaker is the son of Peter J. Shoemaker & Margaret Op den Graeff. Hannah is the daughter of Thomas Roberts & Margaret Gove. Both were born in Germantown.
The couple settled in Upper Dublin township, Philadelphia (now Montgomery) county, where Isaac purchased a tract of land and followed the life of a farmer.

(Isaac Shoemaker is my third cousin 8 times removed. Our common ancestors are Hermann Op den Graeff & Gretjen Driessen Pletjes and Pieter Dohrs & Lysgen Grietes.)
