Re: Schendel family from Posen - 1608
Hello to all Schendels:
I’ve found this forum. In last year wrote me Travor from Arizona. I think we are’nt relatives.
The text „Schendel family from Posen – 1608“ ist very interesting. Maybe that Christian is a ancestor.
My father, grandfather and grandmother lived in Scharnikau (today Czarnkov). From Posen to Scharnikau this are about 60 km to the north.
My grandfather (he was butcher) and his family were driven away in 1945.
My father said me that his father spoke about a relative who went to America about 1870...1880.
List of my father, grandfather, great-grandfather ... and living dates:
Fritz Schendel (1931)
Max Schendel (1879-1961)
(Carl) Julius Schendel (1869-1939)
Julius Wilhelm Schendel (1838-1923)
Nathanael Erdtmann Schendel (1802-1855)
Andreas Szendel (?-1814)
Petrus Szendel (?)
It’s interesting that „Schendel“ early was written as „Szendel“.
Guenter Schendel
