Hi: I am trying to figure out who the oldest Henry Shirk's ancestors are.. I have been looking around on the internet and wondering if they came from Switzerland.

I am Stephen Shirk b 1958
My Father was Ralph Shirk b 1911
Ralph's Father was Owen Shirk b Union County Ohio mid/late 1800's
Owen's father was Henry Shirk b early/mid 1800's Union County, Ohio
I believe Henry's father was Adam Shirk
I believe Adam's father was the oldest Henry Shirk of Hardy Va. now Hardy West Va.

Owen had 3 children, Henry b 1908, Ralph b 1911 and Garnett b 1914?

I am new to all this. Any help info advice you can offer will be appreciated. please email spshirk@aol.com
