Schupfer, Stephenson, Walker, Schultz Genealogy
Blog dedicated to furthering genealogical research of several families in Canada and Idaho.
Mission of this Blog
The mission of this weblog is to provide a genealogical resource for the descendants of the following pioneer families:
Schupfer: Immigrated from Grobming, Austria in 1870s. Three brothers, Matthias, Florian and Rupert. Matthas married Aloisia Knaus in Austria and she came to America in the 1880s. Descendants of the Schupfers now also have the surnames Eichner, Witt, Morris, and Huff.
Stephenson: Most of the Stephenson family continues to live north of the border in Canada. The family was from Didsbury, Alberta. They were farmers, for the most part. My grandmother Alberta moved to Idaho as a young child and was raised by an aunt and uncle in Kendrick, Idaho, Mr. and Mrs. Norris Walker. Walker was a blacksmith.
Schultz: My grandmother Alberta's mother's maiden name. The Schultzes were Germans who immigrated to Canada at an unspecified date. They were farmers.
