Adolph married Carrie (born in Tennessee in August of 1863 to a German immigrant father and a native Pennsylvania mother) in 1884 or 1885 and the union was blessed in November of 1886 with the birth of Esher E. Ralph C. arrived the following October. Julius I. was born during August, 1889; Bertha during June, 1891; David E. in July, 1893; and Arthur during December, 1896. To accommodate the growing clan, a residence at 122 East 8th Street was acquired in 1889 and remained with the family for the next twenty three years.

The obit says:

"Coming to Leadville in 1880, Mr. Schayer engaged in the wholesale liquor business. In 1900 the Adolph Schayer Mercantile co. dissolved. During the same year a daughter Essie died as a result of an operation. Schayer immediately moved to Denver and founded an importing company.

Schayer, always faithful to Jewish ideals, was often called on to conduct the rituals of his faith. During the past 15 years he had presided over many ritual services of former Jewish residents of Leadville.

Mr. Schayer was married some twenty-five years ago to Miss Carry Elsbach, of Cincinnati, who with four sons and one daughter mourn his death.
The sons are Ralph, Julius, David and Arthur Schayer, and the daughter, Miss Bertha. Three brothers, two of Denver and one residing in Chicago and four sisters all of Denver, also survive."
