SCHAABER/SHAVER FAMILY OF PA, VA, & KY

Davidgreat job, we're becoming a very well known family. I would like to say that I believe the spelling of our ancestrial name to be SCHABER. reasons: 1) Johannes Christoph Schaber = as recorded in ship list Philadelphia, Pa 1752, 2) SCHABER used as Family name, Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster Pa, 3) German descendants use Schaber, pronounced as "Shaw ba", 4) Andreas, Johannes Christoph's son signed will in Botetourt Andreas Schaber.
well if I can be of further help let me know.
I'm glad to see our family finally coming together in write and in reach of cousins, THX....GREAT WORK!
