Alexander Schrader
April 1837 - April 29th 1915 (78)
1870
1870 Census from June 7th. At the time much of Orchard Park was called East Hamburg.
​
Keep in mind this is Evelyn Schrader's Grand mother and Grand father- the young boy Gustaff is Evelyn's father who Americanized his name to "August" - the Schrader side of the family not the Fay side. As you can see, both Alexander and Sophia were born in Mecklenberg Germany, same as Sophia's parents.
​
The Bowe family are Sophia's mother and father living with them.
​​​
* the house number is given as 48 but no street number is given.

​Son Gustaf 3 years old is August, Evelyn's father.
parents and child's birthdate all checked out
Also: Charles and Minnie Bowe are Sophia's parents Born in Mecklenburg, Germany. I have seen Sophia's name spelled different ways Bowe/ Boy/ Boye.

Good information: 1900 Census from East Hamburg
Alex and Sophia immigrated to America at the same time 1865 and have been here for 35 years but 34 years married
Also, they were both born in Germany and their parents were German as well.
