The bulk of this book records and deals with facts, memories, and recollections from the 7th-generation—the 11 children of Peter Benjamin and his wife Sarah Phoen Shoemaker. During the 1880s to 1940, the family were hardworking farmers and tradesmen who would experience first-hand the wonders of the telephone, kerosene, electricity, the automobile, and airplanes. Chapters are dedicated to each of the children; holidays and special workdays on the homestead; Shoemaker folklore, beliefs, customs, and proverbs; and a month-by-month year on the Shoemaker Homestead in 1907.
