    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Shaffer/Phy Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3hGBAEB/675.1 Message Board Post: I am researching the PHY surname. In the 1880 census, Randall Shaffer is listed as a grandson of Rudolph Phy. His mother is listed as Lydia S. Shaffer, one of Rudolph's daughters. They were from Chester, Pa. Paul Phy was Rudolphs father. He had a brother, Jesse George PHY who was my gggrandfather. Are you part of this line? If so, I have Paul's naturalization papers, and am anxious to share with his decendants. No father is listed, so I am assuming that he may have died during the Civil War.

This listing that has your Samuel Shaffer as an older brother, is it a census listing? If so, from what state, county, and township. Maybe I can find him in later census records if I know where he lived. I could find him ca 1850/1860 census records and find out about his children if I knew where to look. Thanks. /s/ Sally Chase

Surnames: Shaffer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3hGBAEB/396.453.460.572.1.1 Message Board Post: Thanks for the info about Shaffers. I found out from my MIL before she died at age 90 in 2000, that her grandfather Conrad Shaffer was illegitimate and we don't know who his father was and just where he got the name Shaffer, his maternal grandfather, I am assuming. His older "sister" might have really been his birth mother; later she was the only one who knew the identity of his father and she absolutely refused to tell anyone. We know nothing prior to his name. His son was Frank Shaffer married to a Mossie Williams in 1906. Their daugher was my husband's mother Mildred Adele Shaffer Schairer. 1910 to 2000. Frank had a bunch of brothers, I think or a couple and some sisters. Not sure if a brother or cousin might have been named Fred or not. How old is Fred now? Sandy

After Joseph Shaffer's death in 1869 ~ Emily then married a George W. Hull & they moved by way of the Oregon trail to Washington state between 1870 & 1873. Emily had 2 more sons ~ Frank & Charles Hubb Hull. Emily & George subsequently divorced & Emily then continued living with her son Minor Shaffer on the Shaffer homestead. Minor was my grandfather & was married to Alma Hull & lived outside of Almira, WA Lincoln Co. They raised 6 children: Emmett, Loran, Dean, Genevieve, Joseph & Hiram Hull Shaffer (my father). Joe (Joseph) Shaffer had a son named Fred Shaffer (still living). I've inquired into this query simply because of similar names in the Shaffer lineage. A Fred & a Annetta Shaffer marrying a Montgomery. I h! ave never been able to track down the parents of JOSEPH STANFORD SHAFFER b. 1827 I believe in Iowa & received records that he is buried in Dallas Co., Adams Township, Iowa If this sounds familiar to anyone ~ please advise at clsherm@televar.com Thank You!!!!
