Person:Henry Shindler (1)

HENRY was probably born in the Palatinate, and not "Bavaria" as some records state.

His tombstone sits aside from others in the cemetery. This compiler recalls that Ron Woodward (the Wabash County Historian) told me the story of why HENRY was so ostracized, but the actual story has been forgotten.

In Section 12, southwest of Urbana, a plat map shows a "H. SHINDLER" as owning 80 acres of land. This is likely where Henry resided.
