Description

Portrait of Elizabeth Ann (Sheetz) Bauserman as a young woman.

Elizabeth grew up on Spring Street in Woodstock and was the oldest child of Edgar Simon (1892-1964) and Pearl Mabel (Ruby) (1892-1981) Sheetz. She had two younger brothers, Hallie and Edgar “Eddie”. Her father worked for the railroad in 1920, then became a presser with his own shop (1930), farmed in 1940, and finally, worked as a government mechanic before he retired.

In 1940, Elizabeth had completed a year of college and worked as a stenographer in a law office. She was still living with her family in Woodstock.

Sometime after July 1956, she married a divorced lawyer with two children, John Vawter Bauserman (1908-1963), who had graduated from the College of William and Mary and obtained his law degree from the University of Virginia. His parents were Joseph Morgan (1865-1934) and Mary Elliott (Van Horn) (1868-1946) Bauserman.

John worked as the commissioner of accounts for Shenandoah County from 1934 until his death. Elizabeth and John are both buried together in Massanutten Cemetery.
