Events in My Family Tree: October 12

Simon Krebs died on what would have been the 75th birthday of his wife, Dorothea Schiffer.  I suppose in its own way it was fortunate that she had died twelve years earlier, so her birthday wasn't ruined for the rest of her life.

Births

Dorothea/Dorel Schiffer, daughter of Daniel Schiffer/Schifferer and Henriette Mayer/Hollander, was born October 12, 1803 in Tarnowitz, Obersilesia, Prussia.  She is the great-great-grandmother of my aunt Mary McStroul and her sister Jean McStroul and the 3x-great-grandmother of my 1st cousin Todd Meckler, my not-quite-cousin Angela Williams, and Mindy McStroul.
