Notes |
- Sarah Rebecca Phelps was born 1845 in Fort Ann, New York to Norman Phelps and Minerva Plum Burdick . She married Joseph Oscar Shultz (b 1837 in Pennsylvania) in Fairgrove, Tuscola, Michigan on 15 Dec 1861 in a ceremony performed at the home of William Irish (who is married to her niece, Henrietta Phelps), per the Tuscola County Marriage Ledger. She died 05 Apr 1932 in Bay City, Bay, Michigan.
Sarah Phelps appears on the 1850 census in Fort Ann, New York with her parents, Norman and Minerva.
Sarah R Phelps appears on the 1855 New York State Census for Fort Ann living with her parents, Norman and Minerva.
We have been unable to locate Sarah Phelps on the 1860 census.
Our next record of her is her marriage 15 Dec 1861 in Fairgrove, Tuscola, Michigan.
The census records for 1870 and 1880 show her living in Fairgrove.
She lived in Fairgrove near William and Henrietta Irish and apparently had a close relationship with them. We find Sarah's name on the wedding records of two of Williams daughters, Mary as a witness and Sophronia as a mother! (This was after Sophronia’s mother, Henrietta had died, either an error or an honorary title???)
Tuscola County Deed Record. 28 May 1884 Sarah R, Shultz Purchased 40 acres from Joseph R. Shultz for $700 (NW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of section 14 of Town 13 of Range 8E). The sale of his share of the real estate to the wife is suggestive of a divorce settlement. Although later she is listed as a widow.
Sometime between 1884 and 1889 her Husband Joseph had died. She moved to Bay City, Bay, Michigan and is listed in the 1889 City directory as ‘widow of Joseph’. Also on the 4 census records from 1900 to 1930 she is listed as a widow.
On the 1894 Michigan Census and the 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 Federal census she is living in Bay City at 515 Polk. The Bay City city directory lists her address as a dairy. Her occupation selling milk.
She died in Bay City on 8 Apr 1932. She is buried in Fairgrove (AKA Brookside) Cemetery. Her stone reads Sarah R Schultz 1846-1932. (most documentary information has her born in 1845 including census records for 1850, 1855, 1920, 1930, her marriage certificate and her newspaper obit)
She is mentioned as a surviving sister in the 1923 obituary of her brother Andrew J Phelps of Fort Edward, NY.
On 14 Mar 1878 Sarah R. Shultz of Tuscola County, Michigan received consideration of $5 to sign off her interest as an heir of Norman Phelps Jr in the real estate of which was transferred by Norman Phelps Sr (to his children in 1839), lot 53, Lake George Tract in Fort Ann, NY. (on file with the Washington County, New York, Clerk) -see Norman Phelps, Jr property notes.
listed in 1889 Bay City directory Schultz Sarah, widow joseph, res 515 Polk
4/16/08 Terry had conversation with Dorothy Seeley (daughter of Harry Seeley). Dorothy remembers her Gramma (Sarah Phelps) Schultz. This gramma used to go for walks by Dorothy's house and then stop in to say hi. Then she would go home. Dorothy just a little girl then, remembers Gramma Schultz (our Sarah) as a tiny short little lady. Uncle Reube used to live with her she told me.
8/16/18- notes from terry on cemetery.:
Lot numbers online for Brookside are not right. In Lot #449 are per Brookside records (which began after 1921 Sexton house fire):
Grave 1 west side, no stone is Eunice (Bills) Schultz
Grave 2 West side is Sarah R. Schultz
Grave 4 East half is Wm. Schultz
Grave 4 West is H. Schultz
No other burials are listed in the Sexton records as being in lot 449. The lots are all 8 people lots with 4 buried on East and 4 buried on West. The Sexton said the grave #s meaning grave 1,2 etc and the east & west info could be mixed up. He has the longitudinal and latitude directions for them also.
The Sexton told me an interesting story. As we know Brookside began around 1898 when the owner of the property where Hinson cemetery was wanted all graves removed from his land. So graves and markers were removed. The Sexton Doug Foster remembers his brother’s telling him how they would go look for Indian arrowheads on the Land where the Hinson cemetery was 50 years ago when they were kids. They seen grave stones when looking for the arrowheads. So obviously not all were removed. Now there are wind turbines going up in that area so digging is going on.
