The sponsors for my gggrandfather, James H. Keller, are Delia Casler and Henric Schell
(Shall) (Shell). I believe Delia Casler is related is some way to the mother of my
gggrandfather, Catharina Casler.
I got a lead on a Delia off the Schell board. There was a Delia married to a Mark Schell,
who was a twin of a Henric Schell. This Delia was born Jun 15, 1776 and would have been
59 years old at the baptism, May 1829. But posters there said that Delia may have moved
off to Canada.
I think my Delia has to be younger than this, born around 1800ish, when the mother of my
gggrandfather, Catharina Casler, was born.
The Schell board said the there were two lines of Schells....John Christian Schell and
John Schell. The board said that the John Schell line stayed around Herkimer area.
Would anyone know if there is a Delia Casler connected to a Henric Schell in the Herkimer
area?
