Henry Samuel Sheffler

Samuel C. Sheffler was George Sheffler's youngest son, born in 1815, a year after George returned from his service in the War of 1812. The youngest son of Samuel was Robert B. Sheffler, born around 1858. Until very recently I had only identified two children of Robert, sons William and Eugene, born in the mid 1880's.

However, a number of months ago I was contacted by grandchildren of a Henry or Harry Sheffler, whom we have now identified as being an older brother of William and Eugene. Henry/Harry Samuel Sheffler was born 1884, moved to Butler PA in 1908, and bought a photography studio there on Main Street.

The studio has moved to California since then and is still a Sheffler family business.

My thanks to Sally and Brent, grandchildren of Henry, for a new cousin connection.
