Last Edited20 August 2018

Effie Schuler was born say 9 May 1859 in IndianaG The birth date of 11 Dec 1860 on Find a Grave is probably incorrect. I can not read the death date on the image of the grave marker. However the age at death appears to be 20 years, 9 months and 22 days. Assuming the death date on Find a Grave is correct then the birth date of 9 May 1859. This date is consistent with 1860 Census record.1,2 She was the daughter of Philip Schuler and Mary Elizabeth Buck.1
