Hi Kay (when I finish this I'll put the info I have about the Burches--Henry's wife's family) in an e-mail to you. I was just looking around at Schrammeck messages to see what was interesting. For some reason I had not read this one from you before. It's interesting, your family legend about Henry being a mean man. Maybe your grandfather, Walter, had some info I don't have.
Let me fill in a little of what my Dad told me about his father, Henry. He died at 61. About a year before that, he had been kicked in the chest by a horse. His obit doesn't tell what he died of but my father, Clifford Schrammeck, said it was a heart attack and he felt that a problem started with Henry's heart when the horse kicked him. His father went out to do chores in the barn and came back in to lie down, something he never did. He died soon after. When he died the obit in the Cascade paper said my dad, Robert, and Victor resided in Cascade and George was away, going to school at Mount Ellis Academy, a Seventh-day Adventist boarding school where my dad and Uncle Rob had also gone to school. At the time Henry died, Victor was only eleven years old, George was 14, Rob was 20, Leo (Wallis Leo) was 26, and my dad was 28. These guys were still at home when their father, Henry Schrammeck died.
I have pictures of Ivon and Victor in the snow. They are handsome guys in chaps made of cowhide with the hair left on--real cowboys! They look like normal, responsible young men. It doesn't sound like they were so unhappy at home that they left at an early age. But like I say, maybe I don't have all the details. Look in your e-mail for more info.
Pam Zeirott is related to Walter also. Her father found some interesting info in a book about early citizens of Montana. Have you heard from her? Her family is interested in Schrammeck history too. Bye for now, Hope
