*************************************************************************

Bennett Rd. in Sheffield Village is now called Abbe Rd.

His wife Margaret (aka Margretha [name used in church records] or Maggie was

not mentioned!

His youngest daughter, Bertha Louise of Sheffield was not mentioned!

Mrs. Frank Schneider was my Great Aunt Minnie or Philomena

Mrs. Geroge Standen was actually Mrs. George Stauder. She was Veronica or

Froni,

BTW if you are interested I can try to get the address of Peter Schueller’s home

which still stands.

It is the farm house just south of the railroad tracks (by Ford Plant) on

Abbe Rd. It is on the West side of Abbe Rd. His wife’s birth home also still

stands. It was right on the lake in what is now Sheffield Lake. Of course it hasn’t

been a farm for many years! The barn stood on the other side of Lake road.
