This homepage has been created in an effort to assist African Americans with the surname of SHOBE that are researching their family. I have compiled this information while doing a one surname SHOBE research in the USA. Two brothers Jacob and Martin SCHAUB/SHOBE settled in the Petersburg, WV area of the country about 1750. The family spread out throughout the USA. The African American portion of the family appears to have initiated in WV and moved initially to KY and then on to MO. KY has a large number of African American members of the family including a famous lawyer, Benjamin SHOBE.The records presented here are drawn from census records, wills, and KY marriage, divorce, and death records. The families constructed are primarily from census records. Any corrections or additions to this information would be greatly appreciated. I am still researching the family and attempting to tie specific branchs of the family to specific plantations. I am willing to share any information that I have.
