February 28, 1814 in PA. His father, according to the 1870 census, was "foreign born." He married Rebecca SEITZINGER, dau. of Johannes and Elizabeth (Homan) SETIZINGER, in PA on May 13, 1838. The family is found in 1850 in Schuylkill Co., where Daniel is listed as a blacksmith. By 1860 the family is in Ray Co., MO, and in 1870 they are in Caldwell Co., MO. Children of Daniel and Rebecca are: William N., April 6, 1839, PA Matilda A., March, 1841, PA Elizabeth A., 1842, PA Emma Frances, March 20, 1847, PA Sally (Sarah), Jan. 10, 1850, PA Frederich Daniel, June 20, 1857, MO Amos, abt. 1860, MO I have a full account of the children of Daniel and Rebecca, and the Seitzinger line is well researched. But the SHAFFER line is a wall I can't get through. Any clues, anyone?
