Dear Gary,
I am new at this family search but I am having fun trying to find my mothers parents history.Can you help. Maybe I'm not on the right road, but here goes.
My grandfathers name is Norman Schoen and grandmother is Ruth (Shaver) Schoen. Grandfather was an Indianapolis policeman back in the 1920's. He was murdered on the sidewalk infront of his hpme. According to the paper articals that I found at the Indianapolis library, he stated to his wife that "they" were going to get him. "They" according to my mother were the people at the top of the city government and the police department. He apparently knew something that was not suppose to be known.
I do have my grandmothers SS#, but I know that will only get me so far. There were two siblings-Mary Elizabeth(Betty) Schoen, 5yrs old at the time of his death, who married around 1940 to my father Robert Donald Williams. Henrrietta (Henny) was the second sibling, 3 years old at the time of his death. This is all I know and if you have anythingthat would contribute to my family would be greatly appreciated.Sincerely Searching, Terry Newman
