I am a very late daughter of William Herman Schreck as I was born in 1945.My half sisters Dorothy "Do" Miller and Marian "Babe" Paxton were 30 years older.I only met them when I was 19.They both lived in New Smyrna Beach and were prominent in the area.They inherited the old Riverview Hotel from their mother and stepfather.I maintained close contact with them until Babe died 10 years ago.Do died about 2 years earlier.Neither had children.Do was close to Dad and remembered other children.Was there someone named Willimena?My mother and father separated when I was young, but I spent most of my childhood with my father.He died in November of 1959 (I was 14) in Ft. Pierce.You will be able to find death records in St. Lucie County.He was cremated and his ashes were placed in coffin with my mother when she died in 1964.They are buried in small family church cemetary outside Andrews, S.C. and have a joint tombstone and plot.I visited grave about 15 years ago, but a cousin visits our grandparents there often.How nice to know I have another relative.I live in Atlanta and only by accident decided to search the internet.What a surprise to see my father's name, date of birth and birthplace posted.Hope you will get in touch with me.
