    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Wright, Shaffer, Lehman, Sherman, Miller, Sullivan, Wooley Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3hGBAEB/1002.1.2.1 Message Board Post: Familiar surnames but I don't know much about my Shaffer side of the family at this point. I know my Grandmother was in Shelby Co., OH when she had her first child. I have not located the birth of her parents. I know there was supposed to have been a Grace? Wright married a Lehman, etc in her Mom's line, with Sullivan's, Miller's, Shaffer's too. My G-Grandmother that married a Shaffer had half sibling relation too as her Father was married twice. She was a Sherman to Shaffer. Finding the location of B H Shaffer, etc has been much more difficult for me but I do have a picture of my G-Grandparents Shaffer, etc while on a visit to my Grandmother's in Lima, Allen Co., Ohio where my Grandmother died. I just learned of her final resting place, though it is not where my cousin described it to be. There are no tombstones or markers on the graves but the Sexton of the cemetery verified this was that of my Grandmother with her in-laws. Grandma died in 1934 Ohio. I never knew her. My Grandfather, husband of hers was said to have gone to Toledo, Lucas Co., Ohio and left a child with older siblings and went off to remarrry and I know not whom or where. I think the picture of my G-Grandparents Shaffer, etc was taken late 1920's or early 30's. They are in a photo with the children of my Aunt that died before I was born and I never met that family. I have pictures of them too. One of the daughters of my Grandmother Shaffer, but that being her maiden name. Please all of you keep me in mind, in your searches. Thanks for all of your information.
