Translated:
At the home of his children, Mr. and Mrs. D. J. TePaske, J. Van der Schaaf died in the high age of 83 years 7 months. The deceased leaves a wife in addition to 4 sons in Holland and 2 daughters (Mrs. Rev. Mollema Trijntje ‘Katherina” Vander Schaaf 1858-1947) and Mrs. D. J. Dirkje Vander Schaaf te Paske) here.

Mariage record of Agnes Vander Schaaf (daughter of Arjen Vander Schaaf and Antje Van der Wal and Hendrik Jan Te Paske Married Feb 16, 1882.

This death is confusing, as the father of both Mrs. Rev. Mollema and Mrs. H. J. Te Paske was Arjen Douwes Van der Schaaf born Dec 1815 Beetjum Friesland Netherlands died Jul 1887 Harrison SD. and wife was Antje Romkes Van Der Wal. There seem to be a death year error with the sources found herein.
