SOAPE in TX, TN, VA, and back into Germany

Posted: 2 Oct 2002 3:33PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: SOAPE, SCHWAB, CAPERTON, FOWLER, TIPPIT
Looking for data on husband's ggg grandmother Mary Caperton SOAPE, b.1831 TN. She is daughter of James S. SOAPE and Elizabeth FOWLER. Mary m. Andrew TIPPITT (TIPPETT) 1856 in Panola Co., TX.

James S. SOAPE was b.16 Jul 1801 VA and m. 30 Aug 1822 Rutherford Co., TN. He was #12 of 13 children of his dad George SOAPE and Mary CAPERTON.

I have some data showing the line goes back to Germany and they are SCHWAB there. I am wanting mostly to fill in the dates and data on the ancestors who came to US starting with George's dad Hans Ulrich "Joseph" SCHWAB who came to US in early 1700's as his children were born in VA & W VA. I note even Hans dad Jost SCHWAB was in US as he d. 1727/29 in Lancaster VA.

Happy Trails, Joan *_~
