Hello again Ninda
I am sorry that I have not been able to send you the information about the early Schenck settlers in Pennsylvania as I have not yet received your e-mail address.This lengthy and fascinating document was written by the ancestor of a friend, both of whom were direct line descendants of the original 'Schenck' settlers and I feel sure that you will find it of great interest.
In your enquiry you mention the "Gervais Schenck Branch and earlier".Do you have any information re the earlier ancestors of Gervais as, in spite of several hours research, I have been unable to find any other references to this branch of the Schenck family on this Genforum website or indeed resulting from repeated 'Google searches of the Internet. Nor does the name 'Gervais Schenck' appear among the thousand of persons named 'Schenck' listed in 'Deutsches Geschlecterbuch'.
I am hopeful that you may have some further information about the 'Gervais Schenck branch' of the Family which would enable me to help you.I look forward to your reply either on this website or by e-mail to me at [email protected]
in the meantime, I suggest that you repeat your enquiry on the Genforum website for the State of Pennsylvania, adding any further information such as dates of birth or arrival in the USA and locations in Pa., that you may have about the family.
With warm good wishes
David
