William E. SCHENCK

1849 - 1934  (84 years)

• Name	William E. SCHENCK  [1]
  	Description: The William E. Schenck who died in 1939 and I believe is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati is from a different line. There are so many Schencks its easy to mix them together especially because the same given names occur frequently. Buena Vista Morgan's husband William E. Schenck died in 1934 in Sheridan, Sheridan Co., Wyoming. His death cert is on Ancestry though it is incomplete for his mother and some other details. On the death cert his father is identified as Daniel. A number of his children and grandchildren lived in Sheridan Co. at that time as well. Several separate articles or obits mention that at least for a while, William and some of the offspring lived in Clearmont, Sheridan Co., WY, so I think that also shows a connection.
