• Notes

  From Ezra E. Eby's 1895 History of Waterloo County: Schuh (Now spelled Shuh) Schuh, Jacob, one of the original settlers of York County, Pennsylvania, came from Holland with his wife and family in the year 1720. After spending several months in Germantown he went to Lancaster County where he resided for several years, thence moved to York County, near York, the county town. Here he settled in 1729. To whom he was married and what number of children he had could not be ascertained. The names of some of the children were Joseph, Philip, Henry, and Anna. No trace of the last three named nor of their descendants was given. Schuh, Joseph, was born in 1717. He retained the old homestead of his father, Jacob Schuh, and had a family of several children. He died in 1785. One of his sons was named Jacob. Schuh, Jacob, was born in 1755 and resided on the Old "Schuh Farm" in York County, Pennsylvania. It is not known to whom he was married, neither what number of children he had. We know the names of two sons, Henry and Jacob, and one daughter was married to John Keller. Of Jacob, nothing is known.
