Her early life was spent in Indiana, and November 2, 1875, she was united in marriage to Frederick Christian Schaper and in the coming spring of 1876 they came to Kansas and settled on a farm 4 miles southeast of Mulvane where they have lived, this being their home for more than 65 years. There is left to mount her passing her husband, F.C. Schaper; two sons and four daughters, who are: Mrs. Eda Pease, Independence, Ore.; Mrs. Mabel Buck, Welda, Kansas; Mrs. Myrtle Kessinger, Mulvane, Kansas; Mrs. Ruth Parker, Medford, Oregon; D. Otis Schaper, Mulvane, Kansas; Harry Schaper, Delphos, Kansas; and 18 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren; two sisters, two brothers and many other relatives and friends. Mrs. Andrew Halsig, secretary to Max Levand, president of the Wichita Beacon Publishing Company is a granddaughter. As a young girl she accepted her Christ and became a member of the Dunkard Church. After coming to Kansas, she changed her church home to the Brethren Church of which she was still a member. "Grandma Schaper", as she was so commonly known, led an unusually active life, caring for her family until they all left to make homes of their own. Then she and her husband lived alone in the old home, she doing her own work, except a few short periods of illness, until about 2 weeks before her death. Her death is the first break in the family ties and we all deeply feel our loss. "Leaves have their time to fade; and the flowers wither with the cold wind's breath; But Thou, oh Thou hast all seasons for thine own, O Death! Under the sod, ‘tis so peaceful there, so quiet about me, no sickness, no care. Eyes closed in slumber, hands on the breast. No weary body, no sorrow—‘Sweet Rest'." Funeral services were held at the Bethel Church Saturday afternoon, with Rev. R. F. Porter of Fall City, Nebr., officiating. A quartet of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Norden, Homer Smith, and Mrs. Eva McQuitty, sang "The Home of the Soul", "In the Land Where They Never Grow Old", and "Does Jesus Care?" Pianist was Mrs. Olin Davis. Pallbearers were: Paul Kessinger, Dale Schaper, Dillard Schaper, Carl Sherman, Wallace Buck, and Andrew Halsig. Burial was in the Mulvane Cemetery in charge of Hooten's Mortuary. Information from family records indicate that Harriet's parents were Daniel Brown and Rebecca Brenner Brown. Daniel Brown was born February. 12, 1824, and died January 29, 1894. Rebecca Brenner Brown was born August 25, 1826, in Hohenweiler P.O. Province of Wertenberg, Germany. She died October 14, 1902. They were married November 15, 1847, in Hancock County, Ohio.
