Isaac was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. The book, "History of Franklin County, Pennsylvania," published in 1887 says: "in April 1777 Captain Talbott's Company had been so reduced by hard service that it was recruited up to the required number . . . Isaac Shockey was a recruit." An old history of Champaign County, Ohio, in a story about Isaac's great-grandson. Abraham Shockey says: "his paternal great-grandfather was a brave and loyal soldier during the Revolutionary War, serving from the beginning of the struggle to it's close, and his services were mostly in North Carolina."
In the early 1790's Isaac moved to Mason County, Kentucky. Kentucky became the fifteenth state in 1792 so, at the time Isaac came, it was very much in the wilderness. Thousands of settlers moved into Kentucky from the mid 1770's to the early 1800's and several thousand lost their lives to the Indians.
