    • POSSIBLY DIVORCED IN JULY 1873 SANTA BARBARA COUNTY:
      - 1880 Santa Barbara Census Cynthia Shoemake listed as Divorced

      - LAWSUIT: UNSUBSTANTIATED, but MOST LIKELY this John Shoemake is the same person as John Shoemake, born abt. 1804 in Tennessee.

      - According to Court Cases: SHOEMAKE VS CHALFANT, page 435, "The Effect of a Divorce on a Homestead", https://books.google.com/books?id=1SRPAQAAIAAJ&pg=PA432&dq=John+Shoemake+Santa+Barbara&hl=en&sa=X&ei=SNWnVKv6B42vogTdjgI&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=John%20Shoemake%20Santa%20Barbara&f=false

      "John Shoemake and his wife were divorced by decree of District Court in July 1873 in Santa Barbara. Their homestead established in 1871, Block No. 127, was divided equally between the two; ajudged that the respective portions allotted to each be held by them respectively, free and clear of all claims by or on the part of the other.

      Prior to the divorce, Mr. Chalfant ... recovered a judgement against John Shoemake, and after the decree of divorce was rendered, caused the premises in to be levied upon under an execution issued in his judgement"

      It would seem John Shoemake claimed his portion of the homestead was protected under the Homestead Act, and thus judgements could not be levied against it. The court deemed the divorce made the homestead null and void (and not covered by the Homestead Act), thus making his portion subject to all judgements against it. - JSR 2014
