SHEDENHELM FAMILY- PAST AND PRESENT: August 2016

The Schiltenhelm/Schuttenhelm/ Schittenhelm /Sheetenhelm/ Shedenhelm/ Shetenhelm family can be traced to regions Regensburg and Schuttenhoffen, but it is first documented in a tailor (schneider) named Heinrich "Haincz" Schuttenhelm, who lived in Nordlingen, Bavaria.

PIX OF NORDLIGEN

At the time, Nordlingen, which would later be named a be a central city in two European wars, was a major center of trade where craftsmen of all types could earn a good living. Heinrich is our family Patriarch and he had two sons (women were seldom identified in our family's earliest generations) who constitute the 2nd Generation of our family: There names were Cunz and Claus, both of which were popular names at the time. Cunz was a painter of some note, and his three sons: Haincz, Peter, and Hans were also successful as builders and painters. Claus had two sons: Caspar, whom we know nothing about, and Ulrich, who made his living as a goldsmith. Taken together, Haincz, Peter, Hans, Caspar, and Ulrich constitute the third generation of the Schuttenhelm family... and for the most part, they were still living (and making a living) in the Nordlingen area.

Based on the information we have, our 4th generation centers on Heinricus Schuttenhelm. Heinricus (a Latinized version of Heinrich) was an early graduate of Tubingen University, where he received a law degree. In itself, this would be a significant accomplishment, but Heinricus went on to handle the legal work which reunited Wurttemberg. This seems to be a difficult task on the face of it, but Heinricus must have done it very well because he was given the title of "Senior Judge" and the first Shedenhelm Coat of Arms. Heinricus had three sons, but only one- Hanss- reached adulthood... and thus, he constitutes our 5th generation.
Hanss relocated to Ausserer and became part of a community called the "Vogelsberg Congregation of the 24 Farms" at Alpirsbach, which appears to be a communal effort to make a living and share both access and responsibilities to the Schwarzwald (Black Forest). It is also near Aach bei Dornstetten, from which timber was felled and rafted down the Rhine river to the Netherlands. In this way our family became small farmers (kleinbauers) who also jobs as mayors, judges, and rafters, among other things.
Hanss also gave birth to all three branches of our Schwarzwald (Black Forest) family- his son, Heinrich, formed the Gruntal branch; his son and namesake, Hanss continued the Vogelsberg branch of the family, and his son, Wilhelm, started the Aach branch of our family- some of whom came to America and some of whom live near or in the Black Forest to this day.
From Regensburg to Alpirsbach, from Bavaria to Baden-Wuertemmburg, is the area of ground we covered from 1400 to 1766.

With this in mind, our 6th generation centers on Heinrich (who started the GRUNTAL branch of our family tree), Hanss (who continued the VOGELSBERG branch of our family tree), and my 10x g-grandfather, Wilhelm, who started the AACH branch of our family tree. Since they were born between 1525 and 1530, HannB's three sons were 16th century men... and the 16th century was a time of considerable change in Germany, especially in southwest Germany where Luther and Calvin both found a welcoming audience. Indeed, there was considerable unrest when the Protestant Reformation broke out, but religious struggles were exacerbated by political struggles, as regional rulers sought to make themselves richer and more powerful. Please recall that our family's surname had (and still has) many variations, and records show that the people we may know now as "Shedenhelm/ Shetenhelm/ Helm/ Sheetenhelm" were known then as "Schuttenhelm/ Schutenhalm/ Schytenhelm, Schiltenhelm... and Schittenhelm," which became the dominant form of our surname in the 17th century.

The 7th, 8th, and 9th generations of our family continued to be involved in local politics and to pursue vocations like judges, mayors, city councilmen, farmers, bakers, butchers, foresters, raftsmen, and church caretakers.

Wilhelm HannB-1593-1636-Gemeinderat-Untermusbach

Please note that a Metzger is a Butcher and a Ratsherr is a City Councilman, and that Phillip was awarded a revised Schittenhelm coat-of-arms by Ludwig Frederick of Wurttemberg. It would be an understatement to note that these families lived in a devastating time because the Thirty Years War (1618-48) was one of the most devastating wars Europe has ever seen, reducing the population of Wurttemberg from 445,000 in 1622 to 97,000 in 1639. It was a war that began over religious differences and grew into a continental power struggle. Finally, the German state of Freudenstadt is in the heart of the Black Forest and includes the districts of Dietersweiler, Wittlensweiler, Gruntal, Frutenhof, and Musbach. Michael's son, Johannes, is my 8x great-grandfather.

Generation 9

Adam-1655-1726-Bauer/Restaurateur-Weiden

Michael-1662-1727-Bauer-Aistaig

Lorentz-1640-1690-Metzger-Schrozberg

A Kirchenpflege is a church caretaker, and a Wagner was a coach builder and a wheel maker. A Restaurateur is a restaurant manager, Our 9th generation inherited a Germany that was devastated by the 30 Years War. It is certain that every member of our family was deeply affected by this conflict, but our relatives continued to engage professions, trades, and farming. You will also note that we resided in the same old places.

Generation 10 (of Schittenhelms)

Johann Jakob-1719-1765-Forster (Forester)-Horschweiler

Johannes-1681-1727-Bauer-Vogelsberg

Jerg-1682-1753-Bauer/Gastwirth-Weiden

Joh. Michael-1681-1748

A Gastwirth is an Innkeeper. Since forests were owned by Royalty- and lumber was a very valuable commodity- being a Forster was a job of some note. It is clear that our tenth generation is smaller than it really was- in part, because we don't know much about several of its members. Johann Michael is my 6th great-grandfather.

Friedrich-1733-1808-Farmer/Glassmaker?-Frederick, MD

There are “Shedenhelms” throughout the world, but my focus will be on America… where our relatives have these surnames: Shedenhelm, Shetenhelm. Shidenhelm, Shiedenhelm, Sheetenhelm, Sheathelm, Helm.

Generation 1 (America)

Frederick married Anna Schuhmacher and she gave birth to the following children: George Shedenhelm (Schidenhelm), my 3^rd great-grandfather; Jacob Schittenhelm (who was christened in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Frederick, MD), Catharina Shedenhelm/Schidenhelm (who, like her brother, George, was christened in the German Reform Church in Frederick), and Elisabeth Schittenhelm. Frederick came from Aach and landed in Philadelphia (1766) before making his way (like many others) into Maryland. At this time I have not been able to determine what Frederick did for a living, but I suspect he was a farmer and a factory worker. We know, for instance, that he purchased l09 acres of land in Frederick County, MD. Also, in the 1790 census, Frederick Schittenhelm is grouped with a number of men who were known to be employees of the Amelung Glass Company.

As Frederick's eldest son, Jacob inherited his father's land and the record also shows that Jacob purchased 130 acres of land from his father-in-law, Thomas Walter. Jacob's descendants stayed in Maryland- many of whom still live there- and they embraced the surname of Sheetenhelm. The record shows that Jacob fought with Captain Duvall's Company in the War of 1812. George Shedenhelm married Catherine Lease and they moved from Maryland to Tiffin, Ohio in 1830, where land records show that George purchased 160 acres "near Wolf Creek." Elizabeth married Nathan Brashear, who moved to Ohio, where he farmed. Catherine Sheatenhelm married Anthony Eckhart, who also fought in the War of 1812, and they eventually moved to Hocking, Ohio.

Generation 2 (America)

Catherine Lease

The 3rd generation of Shedenhelms in America consisted of our 3 great-aunts and uncles, our 2nd great grandfather, and 1 cousins-4 times removed. Some of them remained in Frederick County, MD; some of them moved to Ohio; and some of them ventured all the way to Iowa. They are listed below.

from George and Catherine Lease

Levi Adam Shedenhelm, b. 1806 m. Margaret Elizabeth Rosenberger. died in Ladora, IA

Elizabeth Shedenhelm b. 1807 m. Aaron Ruse

Henry Shedenhelm b. 1810 m. Mary Myers

Grafton M. Shedenhelm b. 1813 m. Mary E Schall & Catherine M Schall, d. in Tiffin, Ohio

Mary Shedenhelm b 1817 m. Barnett (Barney) Freeze

Barbara Shedenhelm .b. 1821 m. John M. Schall

LEVI ADAM SHEDENHELM & MARGARET ELIZABETH ROSENBERGER

When George Shedenhelm and Catherine Lease Shedenhelm moved to the area of Tiffin, Ohio, they were accompanied by their sons, Grafton McClellan and Levi Adam. Levi may have stayed in Ohio forever, except for the fact that he had married Margaret Rosenberger, whose father, John Anthony Rosenberger, decided to move on to Ladora. Iowa in 1853. He had been a significant figure in Seneca County, Ohio, but on September 5, 1853, his wagon train of 26 wagons left Bascom, Ohio for Marengo, Iowa- a trip which they made in 23 days, excluding Sundays because they didn't travel on the Sabbath. Levi purchased 800 acres of land in Hartford County, and like all of the others, he got busy clearing his land (which took some doing because all supplies had to be purchased in Iowa City). When Hartford Township was founded in 1854, Anthony Rosenberger became a trustee and Levi Shedenhelm was named "clerk." It is worth noting that the first school in the township was called the "Shedenhelm School" and it cost $500 to build. Also, John Anthony Rosenberger formed the first church in the township. It was referred to as the "Ohio" church and it's first members were: John A Rosenberger and his wife, Catherine Shaull; Nicholas Rosenberger and his wife, Hannell; Michael B Rosenberger an his wife, Lavina; John and Nancy Bair; Levi A Shedenhelm and his wife, Margaret Rosenberger; John N Shedenhelm (Civil War vet) and his wife, Mary; David Broachey and his wife, Mary; Finally, I will mention that Dr. John Bricker, who married both Mary Catherine Shedenhelm and Elizabeth Jane Shedenhelm, established the first medical practice in Hartford Township.

Generation 3 (America)

There are 103 names listed below, mostly 2nd cousins of mine, and mostly from MD., OH., and IA. Our family moved west as land became available. In 1732, to compete with Virginia, 200 acres of land in Western Maryland was offered for rent at 4 shillings starling per year, and in Ohio, land was available in 1820 for $1,25 per acre (80 acres min.) and the same deal was offered in 1832 for land "scrip" in lieu of cash (min. 40 acres). In 1850, land was available in Iowa at these prices: 40 acres cash- $40 (55 if credit); 80 acres cash- &75 (110 if credit); and 160 acres- $135 cash (200 credit). If a person was not the oldest son and desired to be a farmer, these offerings were hard to pass up. Hence, parts of our family moved from Frederick County, Maryland to Tiffin, Ohio (circa 1830), and part of that crowd moved into Iowa (circa 1850.) Family members listed below are 1st and 2nd cousins to me- removed of course.

Shetenhelm m. Mary Fredici Elizabeth Shedenhelm,

GRAFTON McCLELLAN SHEDENHELM (see above)

Grafton M Shedenhelm in my 2x great-grandfather and he may be yours too... because he reared 19 children with two half-sisters. With Mary Elizabeth Schall, he reared George N (1836), Henry D. (38), Reuben W. (39) George W. (41), Elizabeth J. (42), Catherine B. (43), Thomas M. (46), and Levi J. (1848). With Catherine Malinda Schall, he reared John G. (1852), Samuel S. (54), Ellen (55), Margaret (56), Francis M. (58), Ida (59), Elizabeth (60), Joshua M. (61), Mary L. (64) and Clinton (1865). Grafton migrated to Ohio with his parents, and the record shows that he bought 80 acres of wooded land in Seneca County in 1834, and another 40 acres in 1835. Grafton must have been an entrepreneur at heart because he established his own saw-mill at an intersection called "Shedenhelm Crossing." In a section entitled "Shedenhelm Crossing," Warner Beers noted in 1866 that "Grafton Shedenhelm established a saw-mill that is active to this day. and he further noted that, it had the capacity to handle 5000 feet per day." Evidently Grafton succeeded financially because the record shows that he built one of the first brick homes in Seneca County, and according to the 1850 Federal Census, Grafton owned property valued at $5,000.00.

Generation 4 (America)

These ancestors represent the generation that lived during the latter part of the 19th century and into (often well into) the 20th century. Although they made their livings in a variety of ways, they were predominately, like the whole of America, farmers. By generation 5, the majority of Shedenhelms had settled in Oho and Iowa, although there were exceptions to the rule, and the Shetenhelms were prevalent in Michigan. The Sheetenhelms remained in Maryland, and our family had begun to pick up surnames like Lease, Rosenberger, Schall, Bricker, Slaymaker, Ruse, and Tuman, among others. These relatives are, to me, 1st and 2nd cousins, twice removed.
