Susan, The obit for Nancy Jane Knisely is in the DEMOCRATIC WATCHMAN of 10 Nov 1922. I do not have the obit . . . only the reference to it from the obit index. I can't help you with the maiden name of Eliza, w/o Jacob Schultz/Shultz. Jacob's obit is in the DEMOCRATIC WATCHMAN of 11 Aug 1899 (using the Shultz spelling in the obit index). Perhaps it would name his wife. --Fred =================================================================== In a message dated 4/16/2008 10:37:38 P.M.

It does say she was the niece of Ann unless she was a niece from the Orner side of the family. Do you know if there is an obituary for either Nancy Jane Knisely 1922 or Eliza Schultz anywhere or does anyone know the maiden name of Jacob's wife?
