1892 Feb 6 born Franz Schafer, son of Karl & Eliszebeta Barge (Barche)
Schafer. s5

born Frank Schafer at Clarence Center, Erie Co. NY. s6

1897 Mar 17 wife Margaret Maud Church born Cateract, Madison Co. Wisconsin
(at abt age 14, her parents and siblings moved from their farm
in Wisconsin to one purchased in Oswego Co., NY, near Williamstown)

1913 abt Frank went to work as a logger in the Camden Woods, near
Williamstown, Oswego Co. NY, for a Mr. Freuhoff. Not to be
confused with "Williamsville - Erie County", his place of
residence.

Mr. Freuhoff had a farm north of Williamsville, Erie Co., NY s750
(It appears that Mr. Freuhoff may have been in the lumber
business in Williamsville or Clarence Center, Erie Co. and hired
and others to cut timber for him in the Camden Woods, near
Williamstown "Oneida Co.", his first name may have been Joseph) s65

"Grandpa worked for a Mr. Freuhoff and met Gram who lived at Orton
Hollow, four miles from Williamstown...One time Grandpa and a
friend were following Gram and Jennie, both were interested in
Gram. Grandpa told Gram his name was Dego Bill. He stayed late
at her house one night and asked Gram to go to Buffalo with him
and took her to Mabel and Ed Riegles." s338 (Mr. Freuhoff lived
in Williamsville per Red, business was lumber?)

"After Frank met Margaret (but before they were married), Frank
was afraid for Margaret so shipped her off to Clarence Center to
live with his parents until he finished working (in Camden Woods?)
and could marry her." s914 (Most likely because she was "working
out" (in Maple View) and would walk alone into Williamstown to
meet her sister (Jennie?) who was "working out" in ???. They would
then both walk to Orton Hallow to visit their parents. Judging
from what is known about her father H.J., my guess is that he too
did not like Margaret and Jennie being unattended and encouraged
this arrangement.

1914 Jun 16 They married at Clarence Center s314 (married 1913 per s63)
"Grandpa and Grandma were married June 16, 1914 at the Lutheran
parsonage in Clarence Center by George E. Shettler (pastor).
Witness: Howard Schafer, brother Henry's son, & Amanda
Schafer." (his sister) s338

"Grandpa Schafer used to belong to a barbershop quartet and sang
at parties. He was a tenor and a yodeler. Swarmville, near
Williamsville. He sang high tenor as a teenager and then sang
low tenor as he got older." s338

"Gram used to sing gospel songs with Grandpa." s338

block parallel to where Fred and Charlotte Naedele lived) s336

"Grandpa (Frank) got shot in the back of the head late at night
when moving his shovel on a trailer. Lanterns were hanging on the
trailer and a bootlegger ran into it. Grandpa went to talk to him
and was shot in the cap. The bullet went through the cap but not
into the head. He took his hat into Erie. Co. courthouse as
evidence. They lived on Mill st. in Williamsville in 1926 when
Peg was born." s338
