Note: The following information provided by Pat Hunsche: Frank and J. Karolien had four children: Anna (who married my grandfather, Hans Theodore Anderson), Albert F (1875 –1948, Flora (married Wm Elliott) and Frieda (married Edward Gehrke). Anna died in 1904 when my mother was a few months old. In fact a year or two ago the family of Albert contacted me to see who Anna was...she was the older sister, and married and evidently the family did not keep in contact. Flora and Frieda were my great aunts and kept in contact with Anna’s girls.

On the obits, Albert, who died in 1948 is listed as Shueler, and Frank Albert is listed as Scheiler (died 1911). All of the Schueler’s in the Fort Calhoun cemetery are spelled Schueler, Section 1, Block 19, graves 2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8.
