Description

This three-ring binder (D1189b) holds an extensive history of the C. August and Caroline (Konell) Schultz family compiled by Blaine H. Schultz. August and Caroline's oldest son, Frank Schultz, came to Traill County in the early 1880s, and married Endrine Meyer, a pioneer daughter. Frank and Endrine Schultz had 14 children, including sons Fred, William, Henry, Karl, Franz, John, Erick, and Walter, and daughters Ida, Emilia, Ella, Dora, Frieda and Margaret. As shown in a tree, Frank and Endrine's son, William Schultz married Helen Olson, and they had son Blaine Schultz, author of this family history, and daughters Shirley and Norma Schultz, active member of the Caledonia and Hillsboro communities. Notably, Norma Schultz was an active member of the Traill County Historical Society after taking an early retirement at age 58 from a thirty-seven-year career in teaching English, traveling and learning in Illinois and in the UK and Europe (see Norma's obituary in her Memorial Service bulletin).
