Notes
Since daughter Barbara was born in Bavaria, the Schuetz family immigrated to the USA in 1862 or later. And, since daughter Anna was born in Missouri, the Schuetz family immigrated to Missouri by 1864. From this, the Margaretha and George Schuetz family apparently immigrated in the 1862-1864 time range .

Anna Schuetz
The 1880 US Census records were searched for an Anna Schuetz and all the name variations that Ancestry.com provides and no persons were identified who met the criteria of being 16 years +- 2 years, born in Missouri, and parents born in Germany.
A search the Missouri Marriage databases and church records was made but did not identify any viable candidate brides. Apparently Anna Schuetz died after the 1876 census and before the 1880 US Census.
Later Census Records
George Schuetz was not found in later census records. His daughter, Barbara, married and is in later census records (See Chapter: Barbara (Schuetz) Stanglein (1862-1833)).
