Susanna is one of those ancestors I really wish I knew more about. As with most women in the latter half of the nineteenth century, she was undoubtedly a “homemaker.”

I was fortunate and grateful to be given a box of handkerchiefs which belonged to and had been embroidered by Susanna. They remarkably do not look to be over 100 years of age, and I actually carried one around my bouquet on my wedding day.

Susanna married William Schultz (yes, both Schultz’s, descendants of different Schwenkfelter immigrants) on November 30, 1872, when she was 22 years old.

According to the Genealogical Record, William was a retired farmer at the time of its publication in 1922.

Susanna and William are both buried at the Palm Schwenkfelder Cemetery.

children of Susanna and William schultz

Agnes (11-364) is discussed here.

Amelia is only listed on Ancestry, and not on Find-a-Grave and not listed in the Genealogical Record. She was purportedly a twin of Annetta, also born on June 9, 1877, but likely did not survive. I’ve found no other mention of her.

Annetta was born June 9, 1877, possibly a twin of Amelia. She remained unmarried and died on December 14, 1960 and is buried at Palm Schwenkfelder.

Harvey was born on January 27, 1881 and died at the age of 23 on February 8, 1904. He is buried at Washington Schwenkfelder Cementery.

Elmer was born on June 19, 1891 and married Ida E Schultz (1892-1978). He died on February 26, 1952 and both are buried at Palm Schwenkfelder.

Leah Mae was born on May 21, 1895, and died at the age of 5 on March 14, 1901.
