Foy Lee Shoemate

Foy "Pat" Shoemate was my maternal grandfather. Though his mother died when I was young, I never met her or my great-grandfather who died before I was born.

Bud Shoemate's father died just before he was born, so there are some questions about his ancestors. Some records mistakenly place him as the biological son of his step-father. I'm interested in finding more information about Bud Shoemate line in the United States, which has gone through numerous changes in spellings.
