• Notes

  Elizabeth was a widow when she married Herman. From father was a Potts and her mother an Olerich. There is one Ancestry Tree that gives her name as Elizabeth Westmeir Schulenburg, which I believe to be the married name to her first husband. The date and place of her marriage to Herman Schwitzky is from the same source and appears to be reasonable.
