PIONEER SCHELL FAMILY


1. ADAM SCHELL was born about 1809 in New York State. The name Schell, was spelled without the C (Shell), which I am told was very common. The death certificate for Jacob Henry says he was born in Herkimer Co. which would mean they moved to Jefferson Co. 1840, or later. The death certificate was filled out by son Fredrick, so it should be accurate!

He married
DELIA FOLTS who was born about 1803 in New York State.

Children, SCHELL:

2 i CATHERINE SCHELL

3 ii FREDERICK SCHELL

4 iii JEREMIAH SCHELL

5 iv (JACOB) HENRY SCHELL married CATHERINE ANN HART, daughter of PETER BURTON & MAGDELEN (HOLLENBECK) HART

6 v MARY SCHELL

7 vi HARVEY SCHELL married ELIZABETH (BETTSY) HART
