Notes for HARM JANßEN:
The Schneidermann family originated in Simonswolde, Ostfriesland (now northwestern Germany) in the
year 1811. Harm JanBen, his wife Syver Jellen, and their 5 children: Jelle Harms, Jan Harms, Hinderk Harms, Geeske Harms, and Harm, adoped the surmane Schneidermann in response to a decree issued by Napolean to the conqured German people. Soon after, Ostfriesland came under Prussian control and stayed that way until Germany's unification in 1866. By the late 1850's through the 1880's, Schneidermann family members emigrated to America to make for themselves a better life. They settled in Ostfriesland communities found in Illnois, Iowa South Dakota, and MInnesota.
