Notes

Updated December 8, 2023. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):

(1) 1850 United States Census Wisconsin, Fond du Lac Co., the Town of Ashford, District No. 9, Page 113; November 20, 1850.

There is probably a typo in this record. John Phillip SCHEID is as head of household but married to Elizabeth SCHEID (?) -- Everything else seems to match with Marie Catharina WEISSKOPF. Children in the household are Christopher, Jerrod, Catharin, and Elizabeth.

(2) 1860 United States Census Wisconsin, Fond du Lac Co., Ashford Twp., Ashford Post Office: Page 38; June 21, 1860.

Catherine [WEISSKOPF] SCHEID is married to (John) Phillip SCHEID. She is 64 years old and born in Darmstadt. The household includes her son Jacob and daughter-in-law Catherine, and grandchildren Jacob, Elizabeth and Peter.

The grave is about 1/4 mile east of the cemetery in the brambles on top of a big hill and is surrounded by only two or three other graves.
