Paul Schany of Palo Alto County
1. The obituary for Paul Schany states that he was born in Germany, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Matt Schany. It goes on to say that he left behind
a sister in Charles City (?Kate). Another brother and sister (?Minnie)
preceded him.

Can anyone help me with Matt Schany and the missing brother? Is Kate Schany
the sister in Charles city, she did marry John Marzen.
