A Shoup Family Bible is listed as a source for this individual's information on the materials gathered by Seanmcox. No Shoup Family Bible is not a Bible known to be in the possession of any close relatives, and George is not listed in any known family Bible. The only known family Bible which pertains to this line is the Heck Family Bible. The Heck Family Bible, however, does not go this far back.
