NOTES

This is the only George Shaffer than I can find that has two daughters with ages as far apart as the two in the photograph.

Problem is the photograph was taken in Springfield, Ohio which is about 67 miles from Hamilton and all of this George

Shaffer's family was born and died in Hamilton, Ohio. Also, George had two sons. One born in 1872 is missing in the

1880 census and the other died in 1908 which is after when I think the photograph was taken which may have been around

1885-1895. Perhaps he was too ill to be present when photograph was taken which I find unlikely. Anyway, this is why I listed

them as "Possibly."
