Thomas Shoemaker ca. 1750 Pennsylvania

I have been researching the life of Thomas Livezey (1723-1790), the Roxborough merchant miller. I have attempted to find out anything about Thomas Shoemaker who purchased the protperty and built the mill that Livezey purchased from him in 1749. Shoemaker purchased the site two years earlier. I found that the original Shoemaker, Jacob, came to Phila in 1682 with pastorius according to Benj. Shoemaker's 1903 family genealogy. There were at least two other Thomas Shoemakers that I found. The first the son of Jacob married in Phila. in 1715. The second Thomas was born in 1762. This Thomas is too young to be the man who Livezey made the purchase from and I'm thinking he was the nephew of the older Thomas who is about the right age to build a mill. Does anyone have any additional information beyond what Benjamin delineates about these men? I'm trying to see if there may have been a relationship with the Livezey's and the older Thomas Shoemaker.
