Biography

It is doubtful that Catharina was born in Tulpehocken, PA. Her siblings of this age were born in NY. Susanne (Maria?) Catarine Schauer/Shaffer was born 1723 in Pennsylvania. She married Johann Heinrich/John Henry Frey in 1743. They had 10 known children Catarine died in 1796. The Will of Johann Michael Schauer names two daughters, one Catharina, and another Maria Catharina. The daughter whose married name is Frey is identified in Find a Grave as Maria Catharine Schauer Frey.

A matrilineal descendant of Sybilla Frey has a 23andme haplogroup of U5a1b. Would be useful to learn if others can confirm this result for Catherine Schauer's line.

I would encourage the merger of Schauer-10 and Schauer-504. They do appear to represent the same person.
posted by Merle Showers
Schauer-293 and Schauer-10 do not represent the same person because: Johann Michael Schauer had two daughters, Catherina and Maria Catherina. According to Henry Z Jones, Jr. in The Palatine Families of New York, Vol. II, Catherina was Married to Henrich Frey in 8/30/ 1743 and both Catherina and Maria are listed in Johann Michael's will of 1772.

Schauer-293 and Schauer-10 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same husband married on the same day in the same place. Also, they are supposedly sisters but have the same name.
posted by Jon Couts
Schauer-10 and Schauer-504 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same birth and death dates and places, the same husband (who has two different profiles that also need to be merged) who got married on the same date in the same place.

Schauer-10 and Schauer-233 appear to represent the same person because: same husband/apparently same parents - I think 1723 is the more plausible birth year.
