Wolfgang was born in 1894 in Bebek on the Campus of Robert College, where his father taught from 1891 to 1895. He was trained in horticultural engineering in Köstritz (Germany) and in Leuwen (Belgium) and worked as an instructor for horticulture in Smyrna (today Izmir) from 1913 to 1914. 1914-1918 he served in the German-Turkish navy on the Dardanelles.

From July 1915 until January 1916, Wolfgang served at "Hersingstand", a submarine hideout at the shore of Gallipoli peninsula facing the Gulf of Saros.

Starting August 1917, Wolfgang was assigned as personal translator to Kapitänleutnant Kurt Böcking, the German commander of the Naval School in Halki ( today: Deniz Lisesi, Heybeliada Island).

In 1918 he moved to Germany, where he soon settled in Quedlinburg. He worked as a product manager for flower seeds at the then European Market Leader, Dippe AG in Quedlinburg, from the early 1920s until his retirement in 1959. He spent his retirement years in Dortmund until 1977 and subsequently in Essen, where he died in 1984. Wolfgang was married since 1927 to Quedlinburg-born Gertrud Annecke (1901-1987) who is buried with him in Heisingen.

Schrader and Annecke got married in 1927 in Düsseldorf Kaiserswerth by Reverend Siegfried Graf von Lüttichau (1877-1965). Lüttichau had been the pastor of the Lutheran church in Constantinople from 1907 until 1918 and the chaplain of the crew of SMS "Goeben" during the Gallipoli campaign. From 1925-1949 Lüttichau was the chairman of the Kaiserswerth Deaconesses.

The internationally acclaimed scientist (Chemistry, Raman and Infrared Spectroscopy) Prof Dr-Ing Bernhard Schrader is the son of Wolfgang Schrader. He is also buried in Heisingen. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernhard_Schrader )
