I don't believe I have any info. for you, just a coincidence.My maiden name is Schena, my family originated in Italy, and eventually emigrated to Massachusetts.I seem to recall my aunt saying her father (my grandfather) told her that a German man intermarried with the Italians and that's how we got the name "Schena".I would be interested in knowing how you pronounce the name.For us, the "ch" is a "k" sound and the "e" is the long e sound.
Good luck in your search.
