On the back of a picture with her parents, no given names were mentioned. Only mentioned my mother's grandparents on a visit and the name written as Shaefer. Writing was worn and not very legible. I am told, Eurilla had siblings, Hattie, Murlin, and Edger. Also mentioned a Benjamin H(Hiram?) Shaffer m a Sherman. One of the Sherman sister's supposedly married a Daniel Franis Shaffer too same generation. I have found a Benjamin Shaffer of a Charles Shaffer/etc. Parents of Sherman/etc AKA's were to have been Elijah Sherman b 1819-1881 m (2) Sarah Foster b c 1835. Elijah's first wife was said to be an Emma Garver. Other surnames in this family were said to be: Miller, Wright, Sullivan, Robinson, Smalley, Byrne, Wagoner/Wagner, Staley, Kelly, etc. Do you know any of these?
