    Most of the following information about Johannes Kirshof comes from a book entitled: "Johannes Friederck Kirshof, early settler and patriarch of nothern Augusta County." It was written by Lula Mae Miller, published by McClure, c1981. Some specific facts in the Miller book have been called into question by various researchers, but it apparently gives a generally accurate view of the family.
