• Notes

  [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 2, Ed. 1, Tree #5006, Date of Import: Apr 26, 1997] Excerpt from the 1942 Schneller Genealogy: John Jacob, Jr., served in the Civil War. He had great influence with the Indians and was frequently asked to settle disputes between them. Excerpt from the Alan Schneller "Story": Others who served in the Civil War were Simon (1843) and Lutzi (of the John Jacob -1808). John Jacob Jr. tried to enlist at the age of eighteen, but he was too small and young. Finally at the age of eighteeen he was accepted. His brother Jacob joined at this time, being only thirteen years of age. They were loaded into an open cattle car in January and sent to St. Louis. There was an epidemic of measles and Jacob died enroute.
