Charles Arthur Schmidt

Hunter, Butcher, Barber

    Hi I’m Charles Arthur Schmitz I am now high middle class but amazingly a few years ago I was poor. My story starts a little after arriving in the new colony.
    “SSHH”, I said to my eldest son Charles Jr. He had just broken a stick. It was the first time he had ever been hunting with me. I saw my hunting spot, a bush. Right behind the bush is where the deer lie down. I looked over hoping to see a big buck lying down. Instead all I saw was dirt. That was it, dirt.
