Friedrich Schor (1705-1773), son of Friedrich Schorr and Usula Tschudin, married Margaretha Schneider in 1729, and in 1750 the family immigrated from Switzerland to Philadelphia (Margaretha died at sea). Frederick Shore (as his name was anglicized) and his children settled on land in Augusta County, Virginia, moving later to Surry County, North Carolina. Descendants and relatives lived in Virginia, North Carolina, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas and elsewhere.

Catalog of Catalogs provides a comprehensive index of nearly 2,300 publications documenting the exhibition of Judaica over the past 140 years. This vast corpus of material, ranging from simple leaflets to scholarly catalogs, contains textual and visual material as yet unmined for the study of Jewish art, religion, culture and history. Through highly-detailed, fully-indexed catalog entries, William Gross, Orly Tzion and Falk Wiesemann elucidate some 2,000 subjects, geographical locations and Judaica objects (ceremonial objects, illuminated manuscripts, printed books, synagogues, cemeteries et al.) addressed in these catalogs. Descriptions of the catalog's bibliographic components, contributors, exhibition history, and contents, all accessible through the volume's five indices, render this volume an unparalleled new resource for the study of Jewish Art, culture and history.
