Said to be 74 at time of death - Her husband Edward should be in Grave #1 of the same section. Her mother - Last name Schultz is in immediate location as well. (Plot: Section 6 Tier 40 Grave 151) Ottillie's maiden name was obtained from Paul's death certificate dated 1953. However, Schultz is a name from an adoptive father. Birth name is Kienitz. Married in Germany in 1885. Immigrated to America in 1888.

Around 1888 her mother, Wilhelmina, had given birth to Martha Schultz(1886), pregnant fifth child while Mr Schultz was most likely ill based on his death date. She gave her fourth child, Martha Schultz, to Ottilie Schmidt to immigrate to America. Ottillie immigrated with 2 year old Martha Schultz and her three month old son, George A. Schmidt.

Strangely, Martha Schultz(1886) was NOT listed in 1900 (age 14) Ohio Census with Ottillie and Edward Schmidt's family. Her adopted daughter, Martha Schultz (1886) married William Kuchenberg. For some reason, Martha's marriage certificate says that Edward Schmidt is her adopted father but she identifies a Mary Meyer as her mother.
