SCHAUSS/SHOUSE/SHORES
According to the Shores DNA project, my descendency is through the Schauss/Shouse family.I can't get beyond James Shores who was born 1798/99.He married Lucy Markwood in Monongalia Co., VA.His census records state that he was born in either VA or PA.Although, he may have been born in NC.If NC is correct, I just can't figure out how he ended up in northern VA without his family.Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
