1. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Eshtemoa
   obedience, a town in the mountains of Judah (Josh. 21:14; 1 Chr.
   6:57), which was allotted, with the land round it, to the
   priests. It was frequented by David and his followers during
   their wanderings; and he sent presents of the spoil of the
   Amalekites to his friends there (1 Sam. 30:28). It is identified
   with es-Semu'a, a village about 3 1/2 miles east of Socoh, and 7
   or 8 miles south of Hebron, around which there are ancient
   remains of the ruined city. It is the centre of the "south
   country" or Negeb. It is also called "Eshtemoh" (Josh. 15:50).
   

2. Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's)
