This page represents SHUMANs everywhere, including all the variant spellings listed above. We welcome your interest in this surname, but please remember that the information you find here is for your personal use only. It is not to be sold or re-submitted to libraries or other genealogical entities. We certainly encourage your sharing the information found here with other family members, for their personal use, but we ask you, in return, to consider sharing information about your family with us. The links found here take you to files which contain limited information that, hopefully, will arouse your interest in requesting more information (more generations, notes, sources) about specific families.

If you have SHUMAN connections, please contact James Shuman. The SHUMAN Discussion Group exists to promote the research into family history and to help you locate your own SHUMAN roots in genealogy and history, and to tell your family's story. Won't you join us?
