Notes

This information was rec'd from another Carvell researcher and has not been verified. USE ONLY AS CLUES, NOT FACT.
"Is this the same people you requested of me to find? You mentioned a George Herrold Schaffer. The name just seems too close to be a coincidence. Plus she died in 1891, "no idea when she died - maybe abt 1900" is what you had told me.
Catherine is probably buried in Paradise U.B. Cemetery along with her husband, but there is no headstone.
