On the Maps of Gallia County, Ohio, for the year 1874 there is shown a "William Shuck" as owning property in Walnut Township, adjoining the Lawrence County line. It may be that this William Shuck was a relative of Elizabeth Shuck (Peter Nida's wife). It is believed that the name "Shook" is derived from "Shuck".
