From a heraldic scroll made by the late Samuel M. Schanck, Counsellor-at-Law and loaned for this book by his son E. Grandin Schanck, Hightstown, N. J. Mr. Schanck prepared the scroll with much care, and had finely painted on it pictures of the various escutcheons belonging to the Schenck family, the illustrations and descriptions of which are not here given. See in the German works on Heraldry or Coats-of-Arms in the Astor Library, N. Y.


Schencke is the name of a very ancient family who were spread over all Germany. In the reign of Charlamagne there was a knight Edgar, sur- named the Schencke, about A. D. 798; his wife's name was Fredegunde, b. in the region of the Moselle. The family descendants of this Knight, most especially in Suabia, Switzerland, Selesia, and Holland. were greatly renowned and possessed of large wealth. In Holland the family of the Scheneks is found in the person of Colvede Witte, Baron van Toutenburg, who was killed in the battle of Clodius against the Dane in A. D. 878. Some of the Scheneks were in the tournaments during the latter part of the Middle Ages. In 1234 Christianns the 2nd s. of Reynier & Aleyda Schenck became the first of the house of Schenck van Nydeck.

J. ; he had a family coat of arms up on a pannel in one of the doors of his dwelling, copies of which still exist; and what was then very rare was in his will styled "gentleman": he was also a commissioned officer in the Provincial Militia: in 1737 he and his cousin purchased of John Penn a tract of 6500 acres of land at Penns Neck near Princeton N. J. on which several of his children settled: he had 11 chldr. all except Antje b. at Pleasant Valley; Koert Gerretse was one of his sons.

In 1727 he was a deacon, and in 1747 & 1764 elder in the Reformed Church: he had Garret, William, & Koert & 5 other children. Wm was b. Oct. 13, 1740 studied theology with Rev. Wmn.
