The History of Licking County states,
"The Baptist Church of Johnstown was organized in 1839 by F.R. Freemen.
Original members were...(Maria)Barbara Shoemaker..." Pg. 355.  Christopher
and Maria Barbara (Keller)Shoemaker were early settlers of Licking County,
Ohio.  They settled near Johnstown in Monroe Township.  An earlier attempt
at the family history mistakenly listed Christopher Shoemaker as being born
in France and Marie Barbara Keller in Holland.  This was incorrect as their
youngest daughter Pauline Pyles stated in the 1880 census her father was
born in New York and her mother in Pennsylvania.  The youngest daughter
Pauline was incorrectly listed as being married to Joel Pyles.  He was her
son, not her husband.
