I've "rescued" an old photograph of William F. SCHOEN which was taken at the C. Fritz Studio in Forest Grove, Oregon. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with William likely about 2-3 years old at the time. Based on limited research I believe that this is a photograph of William son of Fred W. & Edna SCHOEN who appear in the 1900 census of Washington Co., OR along with two children, William age 7, and Harry age 3. Fred W. is listed as 33 years old, born in Pennsylvania to German born parents, his wife Edna is age 27, also born in PA to German born parents. During the 1910 census the family is living in Cornelius, OR with 4 children, William age 17, Harry age 13, Herman age 7, and Esther age 2. The Mother's name is noted as "Ida" during this census report; however it is noted that she and Fred W. have been married for 18 years so I don't believe this is a different wife, just a different name recorded. The family also has a servant living with them at the time as well. In 1920, William F. SCHOEN is recorded in the census of Cornelius, OR listing his age as 29, with a wife, Emma age 23, and son Milvin age 1 year. Emma is noted as born in Nebraska to German born parents and William is farming. I'm hoping to locate someone from this SCHOEN Family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to its rightful place with their family. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
