Elizabeth,
In my Shuey/Shewey database, I show David as being the second eldest sonthe son of Jasper Schuy and his wife, Magdalena Beckner.
Jasper was the third son of Peter Schuey and his wife Magdalena Banckert.
Peter is listed in Dennis Boeshore Shuey's second volume on the "History of the Shuey Family in America - 1732-1919.
on p 28 where he is mentioned in his father's will recorded in Book C, page 474 in the Register's office in Lancaster, Pa. and covered extensively on p 314.
Dennis Shuey states however, that he "has no positive information as to what became of Peter Shuey and his children, and whether those children were sons or daughters."
Much of the additional material that I have regarding this family came from Gail Shewey and Alan Cox.Gail is a great great grandaughter of David Shewey while Alan is a descendant of John Shuee - one of Peter Schuy's other sons.
The Shuey family history now goes back to the early 16th century in France.
Hope this information proves helpful.
