1880 US Census (District 180, Loran, Stephenson County, Illinois). Repository: Ancestry. Surety: 4. Lists Henry Shrove [spelled Shroff] (age 66, b. PA), wife Elizabeth (age 67, b. PA) and children Jeremiah (age 33, b. PA) and David (age 26, b. IL), living in Loran, Illinois. Also in the household are "granddaughter" Cornelia (age 6, b. IL), "grandson" Arthur (age 2, b. IL), "grandson" Charles (age 1, b. WI), and "servant" Amie Koch (age 17, b. IL) who is listed as a "hired girl." Henry is listed as a "farmer," and indicates that his parents' birthplace is "unknown." [Info probably provided by other family member]. Elizabeth indicates that both her parents were born in Germany. The grandchildren indicate that both their parents were born in Illinois, which leads us to conclude that their father must be either David Shrove or Franklin John Shrove. Their mother's whereabouts are unknown, and she is presumably dead. Amie indicates that both her parents were born in Germany.
