I work 4 days a week, 10 hr days and don't normally get on my computer on a work night so please be patient for a response. I don't always get back to emails when I'm off. Also, I am going to school full-time online.
I'm open to exchanging info and photos.
I currently am concentrating more on sourcing my Shockey lines at present as I'd like to publish an updated set. :-)
Charlotte Shockey was born in Georgia. (other info is private)
Charlotte is a Lutheran Christian. They attended the Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Augusta, GA.
Charlotte Shockey was born in Georgia.
Charlotte is a dancer, since she was 5: ballet, tap, jazz (see dance photos). Her dance school later migrated into hip hop and character dancing also. She has taken a few classes in ballroom and learned the Lindy Hop from a friend very quickly back in High School.
Charlotte is also still close friends with Da Cru from Harlem High School. As well as several of her 1st and distant cousins, dance friends, and Sarah Tracy (her wine partner).
Charlotte also has been doing photography since she was very young first using her mother's Kodak Instamatic on trips. She taught herself what she knows through books and the few classes she had. She enjoys creating interesting images through composite which she found through doing a 365 Day Self Portraiture project that she feel short on but enjoyed none the less. She also used her photography skills in several productions of TV Shows that never were shown on TV. She received the 34th Annual Telly Award - Bronze Entertainment for "Georgia Boy's Grits N Glory" teaser as Art Director, Graphic Design, and Still Photography. The other shows she worked on were "Honky Tonkin USA" and "Kingz of Swing".
Charlotte enjoys wine. She loves trying new wines and rating them on Vivino. At the end of 2014 she started brewing her own wines at home hoping to eventually start her own vineyard in the Winchester, Virginia area (if she can win the lotto).

My interest in finding out my family history started in Mrs. Odom's class at Harlem Middle School. The assignment was find out the origin of your surname and recreate your coat of arms. I found a Shockey in the English origins but could never find a coat of arms. So I created a shield with a lightning bolt hitting a key - "Shoc-key". *wink* It wasn't until years later in 2003 that I really started my family database to find out that Shockey was the Americanized version of my surname.
I now enjoy meeting all my cousins no matter how distant. I've started three groups on Facebook one for my Shockey cousins, one for my Sperry's, and another for just my maternal side. I've also attended Shockey Family Reunions (since 2012) and looking forward to many more. I'll be working on the Shockey Family Fellowship Inc. website, and newsletter, and am a board member (since 2021). Attended my first Dyess Reunion on 29 Oct 2016.

Digital Afterlife
13 Feb 2017
In the event of my untimely demise I want to be sure that none of my hard work on WikiTree ends up having to be deleted. While I fully intend to be around to manage all my profiles for the next 50 years or so, in the event of my sudden death I hereby give permission for all of my private profiles to be transferred to any of my family members or to any of the other wonderful WikiTreers who have collaborated with me. My own personal profile will be left to an active family member and/or Emma, Misty, or Kaite to tend and weed. I'll also have an obituary set up on an unlisted "free-space" to be updated, made public and linked to my profile after my passing. Charlotte Shockey's Obituary

Hi Charlotte: Just a reminder that stickers of One Name Studies should go beneath the Biography header, and that there are two different stickers. One for members (i.e. WT members), and one for profiles. See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:One_Name_Study_Project_Templates
I was going back through my "to- do" list and found out that we can't find the owners of a few private profiles of direct ancestors stating they are living. I'm not sure if we are 2nd or 4th cousins but I'm going to list the data below and if by chance you have the profiles I'm hoping you can add the data and possibly open them up or connect them to their mother etc as I keep almost setting up profiles for them (several dozen sources) but then remember they have (inaccessible) spots: These are children of Cora Lee Smith and John William "JW" McCombs:
John William Smith McCombs: April 20, 1925 - May 12, 2015
Since his death occurred in the 1990's here is a link to the Ongoing Social security source as well:
"United States Social Security Death Index," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VM1Z-34D : 8 January 2021), Carl D Mccombs, 24 Nov 1995; citing U.S. Social Security Administration, Death Master File, database (Alexandria, Virginia: National Technical Information Service, ongoing).
I'd hate for someone else to create duplicate or more profiles for these men and their increasing families because they don't show up when searching by name or birth date.
Cheers!

Also- I am happy to add sources and write a bio for either if not yet done since I've got the information in front of me.
I may have sent a PM the other day. You have Clontz in your tree. I am interested in a Clontz Y-DNA test you admin. The person is a direct descendant of Hieronymus Glantz who came to America in 1732 with a child who became John Michael Clontz and had a son Jeremiah Clontz in 1756 and another son in 1760, and these two boys are revolutionary war soldiers. The Y-DNA is J-M172, which matches one of my other cousins. I would like to talk about Glantz/Claunch/Clonts/Clontz lineage.
If you are the admin for this Y test it would really help to join the Glantz project on ftdna.com. The Claunch people are all there. Thanks.
BTW, J-M172 has a really interesting relationship with R-M269 (celtic) which my Claunch line happens to be.
