Elizabeth Anna Schoen

1920 – 2014

Elizabeth kept meticulous journals and wrote stories for her family, and left behind a life worth remembering. This site is a place to know her.

Made for Elizabeth Barbara, who carries her name — and open to all who knew Elizabeth Anna.

✦

Elizabeth's memoir in her own hand — Christmas memories, family history, and life in Mt. Olive in the 1920s and '30s.

Photographs are being gathered from family albums. This collection will grow.

Parents, siblings, children, and the people who shaped her story — being filled in by family.

Elizabeth was known for her cooking. Recipes are being gathered from family — handwritten index cards, notebook pages, and all.

Things that don't fit neatly elsewhere — a baptism certificate, a hymn she always kept.
