Schefft family in Saint Paul Lutheran in Grafton, WI
Hi Curt,

I linked up some folks in the Saint John Lutheran Cemetery in Garfield Heights, Oh to Louis and Sophia Shefft (31807995 and 73859089). Louis and Sophia were married, came from Mecklemburg, Germany together with their four oldest children, and had additional children in Grafton, Wisconsin. Sometime in the 1870s or 1880s, 4 of their children traveled to what was then Newburgh Hamlet, Ohio, and joined St. John church. They and their families are buried there. Louisa Schefft Hellmann is my great-great grandmother.

You might want to also link up Louis and Sophia memorials as spouses. It looks like at least 2 of their children who stayed in Wisconsin, Carl (31807994) and Johanna (41796744, although you don't manage that one) could be linked to their parents too. Emma (31808636), from the 1910 WI census, appears to be Carl's wife, so could be linked to his memorial.

If you have questions about documentation, I added it all to the Garfield Heights memorials in the bio sections.

Thank you SO MUCH for adding the Wisconsin half of this Schefft family - it's great to reunite them virtually, and to see their gravesites!

If you ever find that you are looking for family memorials in West Texas or the Austin/Round Rock, TX area let me know. I go to Austin every few months and live in West Texas.
Thanks again,
Robin

Barbara Prom memorial 1898-1986
Would you mind adding Barbara's maiden name of Schueller, she was born Oct 26, 1898 in Belgium, Ozaukee, WI, and died Jan 1986. She is the daughter of Jacob Schueller and Margaretha Pirrung. Her husband Nicholas Prom was my grandfather Edward Prom's cousin.
