Notes

Note NI990Family tradition holds that Hans is a son of John and Mary Schenks. Bu

t, John and Mary would have been aged about 16 when Hans was born. The probate records for Mary Schenks do not list him as an heir, when all her other surviving childen are named. Also see the Courier, 24 Nov, 1911, "Henry Schenk Visited his uncle, Hans Schenk, at Minturn first of the week, it having been 10 or 12 years since they saw eachother". Henry is a son of John and Mary Schenk, so Henry's uncle may be John's brother.

In 1896 the Courier reported, "Walter Cloud died last Sunday afternoon at the home of Hans Schenks. He had been ill with pneumonia and congestion for several days prior to his death and was a patient sufferer, not giving up until the last day, when he said he felt very badly. He was an employee in the stacking department of the stave factory under Hans Schenks who is foreman of that department ..."
