Biographical Sketch of W. M. Schultz, Greene County, Missouri,
Campbell Township

>From "History of Greene County, Missouri," St. Louis: Western
Historical Company, 1883.

**********************************************************************

W. M. Schultz was born in Claiborne county, Tennessee, December 7th,
1845.  His father, Jacob Schultz, came to this county in 1858, and
settled on a large farm two miles southwest of Springfield, where he
resided until his death, in 1865.  Here the subject of this sketch
still lives, having made farming his vocation in life.  In February,
1863, he enlisted in the cause of the Sunny South, joining Capt.
Brown's comany, of Green's regiment and Marmaduke's division.  Sub-
sequent to this, he was on Gen. Polignac's escort, and still later
was transferred to Waller's Texas regiment.  He was through the Banks
campaign in Louisiana, and surrendered at Marshall, Texas.  Returning
to his Greene county farm, he has since paid his attention to farming
and stock raising, and owns a place of two hundred acres of fine land.
Mr. Schultz was married June 4, 1881, to Miss L. E. Payne, a native of
this county, and a daughter of Jacob Payne, one of the early settlers 
of Greene.  One child has been born of this union, a son, named Jacob
P. Schultz.  Mr. Schultz is one of the steady, substantial men of the
county, and does well his part in life as a tiller of the soil.
