Below is adapted from the Chariton County, Missouri biographical sketch of ANDREW J. SHUMACHER:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One of Chariton county's most successful citizens and farmers, AJ Shumacher was a native Missourian, his birth having occurred in Pike county, October 14, 1850.
Hiel Shumacher, the father, was a native of North Carolina, but located in Pike county, Mo., as early as 1819. His death occurred in January 1894.
Annie Corey, the mother, was born in Jefferson county NewYork, but when five years of age, with her parents moved to this state. By her union with H. Shumacher, ten children were born, Andrew J. was reared upon the farm and educated in the public schools.
At an early day he adopted farming as an occupation in which he has met with abundant success. His residence in Chariton County began in 1873 when he located near Prairie Hill, where he remained for seven years. In 1880 he purchased 120 acres of land in Keytesville township, which he then greatly
improved. In addition to a comparatively new and substantial cottage residence, Mr. Shumacher had good out-buildings and a fine orchard. With the exception of about 12 acres of timbered pasture, the land was all in cultivation and well-fenced.
On October 14, 1880 Shumaker was united in marriage to Miss Martha Corey, a most worthy lady and a citizen of this county. Religiously, Mr. and Mrs. Shumacher are earnest and conscientious members of the Primitive Baptist church. Politically, he was a democrat and an enthusiastic supporter of the free and unlimited coinage of silver at a ratio of sixteen to one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No children seemed to have been born to this union. Martha died July 7, 1901 age 39 years, 8 months, 9 days.
In 1902, he was married to his second wife, Effie Viola Gideon, daughter of C. Wesley and Missouri Eva (Harlan) Gideons. (Spelling of name was changed at this generation.) Together, they had at least five children:
• Annis Hazel (named for AJ's mother)
• Georgia Josephine (Josephine was the name of Effie's sister-in-law)
• William C. (died young)
• Eugene J.
• Leeola
