His father was George Schaeffer (b. about 1846) who married Catherine Leibensperger. I have nothing further on them other than that too were were most likely Reformed as that is where the family went. My information at this point is of more recent origin as Dr. Schaeffer's 3 children were 1st cousins and well known to me. I am still trying to hunt down more of my Westfall family as I am a direct descendant. Schaeffer is an allied line. Peggy [Lyte] Tyrrell >Jeri > > > > > > >
