We appear to be decendents of Philip Shadrach. My great...uncle was Robert Shadrach. We have details of genealogy of Shadrach's that include marriage to Kerr's and even a Mary Kerr to a William Campbell. There are many coincidences? Sincerely, Ron Shadrach Hello,

We plan to attend the event on April 12, 2012. We appear to be decendents of Philip Shadrach. My great…uncle was Robert Shadrach.

We have details of genealogy of Shadrach’s that include marriage to Kerr’s and even a Mary Kerr to a William Campbell. There are many coincidences?

Sincerely,
Ron Shadrach
