Parentage of Thomas SHORES has not been proved. He is clearly identified in the 1850 census as "Thomas of J", leading to the supposition that his father's given name began with a "J". The only "J" SHORES of suitable age to be his father appears to have been Joab SHORES who appears only once in the 1810 census for Somerset County, Maryland, with a young male of suitable age in his household.
More investigation is needed to prove this relationship.
