SCHULTZ-FLOERKE FAMILY MEMORIES
Albert Henry (Heinrich) SCHULTZ (1854-1936)
From Albert�s obituary: Born in Pomerania, Germany. At the age of two, he came to this country with his parents who settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, then moved to the town of Hebron. He resided in the Fort Atkinson area for 40 years.
From 1900 Census, Jefferson Co., Koshkonong Twnship, WI: Notes that Albert came to the USA in 1856. Augusta FLOERKE-SCHULTZ came to the USA in 1869.
From Evelyn BARTELT POLLARD: Grandpa was almost totally deaf (as a young child he had diphtheria, my mother told me), so it was difficult to talk to him unless one shouted. Besides being a farmer, he was a mason by trade. Both he and Grandma were great readers and spent the cold winter months reading the books they checked out each Saturday (their marketing day) at the public library. They also subscribed to a German newspaper and attended the German services that were then held at St. Paul�s Lutheran Church. They had their own pew which had a hearing device installed to help Grandpa hear the service better.
From Justine MATSCHKE ROLLINS: Grandpa was a gentle, easy-going but hardworking soul. A precious memory in my life.
Augusta FLOERKE SCHULTZ (1860-1940)

More about Adolph
Adolph & Gertrude WIESE SCHULTZ had two sons: Robert Louis SCHULTZ (1916-1965) and Austin Vincent SCHULTZ (1919-1991).
From Mary (Mrs. Austin) SCHULTZ: �Poppy� attended college in Milwaukee where he met Mom (Gertrude). Poppy SCHULTZ was transferred from the Milwaukee Colgate Palmolive Peet plant to Kansas City, Kansas, plant in 1926. He was a draftsman. He went into the payroll dept. in 1948 after a heart attack. He retired from Colgate at age 65. He only lived one year after retirement. When Mom died I used to clean house for him and every day he came to our house for supper. It was after supper one day that he took a stroke. He lived some time partially paralyzed, never able to talk (14 days) and then passed on.
From Rosalind SCHULTZ JACKSON: I was very happy Grandpa was able to come to California for my wedding in 1958. When Grandpa had been very sick in the hospital he was waiting to die on the same day Grandma did five years earlier. But he died the day before the anniversary of her death.
Memories originally compiled in 1996.
