Grandparents on my mother's side of the family. Robert Milton Shaffer was born 11 July 1846 in Athens County Ohio. On 20 May 1866 he married Mary Louise Powell. She also was born in Ohio. Their children were Mamie Maria born 15 Jan 1877 and Flora born 28 Aug 1871, both born in Athens County Ohio. Sons A. W. and E. R. who lived in Kansas. Another daughter Ollie Shaffer who married Ory Fitzjarrald and lived in Kansas, Colorado and lastly in New Mexico. Three children died namely James, Silver and Chlora. I don't have Robert Milton's Father's name but he was married to Ann McNeal, born 1823 and died 1912. If any of these names are familiar to anyone I would be glad to hear from you.
