The original Fogleman ancestor that I am related to is George Fogleman who came over with the Shoffner family (my grandmother's family) in the 1700's on the Ship Shirley which arrived in Philadelphia.

Left is a picture of my grandfather, John Page Fogleman, when he was young. The Fogleman and Shoffner familycame to this country from the same town in Germany. In fact, Michael Shoffner I, was married to Margaretha Fogleman (Vogleman) when he arrived in this country in 1739.

My grandfather's parents were John Tyler Fogleman and Frances Shoffner Fogleman (pictured below). There were married during the civil war on December 31, 1863, the following is reported be their wedding photo.

They had 12 children, Lenora, Thadeaus, Sallie, Mary, Michael, Queen, Elmira, James, William, John, Charles and Flora Rebecca. Here are pictures of some of them:

My grandfather used to speak all the time about growing up in a log cabin. He used to take us to it when I was a child. It was in ruins, but he used to point and say, that's where I grew up.
