Biographical history

Clara Hoffer was a farmer near Sonnenfeld, Saskatchewan.

Clara Schwartz was born in 1887 to Shmaje and Zelda Schwartz in Sorozynetz, Bucovina, Austria. The family moved to Lipton, Saskatchewan in 1905 and bought a farmstead near Sonnenfeld.

Clara married Israel Hoffer, who had immigrated along with the Schwartz family, in 1909. They purchased their own farmstead nearby where they had six children: Ester, Marion, Libby, Fannie, Stanley and Abraham.

The Hoffer family lived on the farm until 1956 when Israel died and Clara moved to Regina. Clara died in Regina in 1975.
