Ancestors of James Harris Shankle

 

 

 

 

Generation One

 

 

     1.  James Harris¹ Shankle (George, #2)  (James Harris Shankle (later known as Harris James) was the second son of George Isaiah and Mary Ann Priscilla Lohnes. He went fishing on his father's schooner at age twelve and became a highly skilled seaman, moving on to large international cargo schooners at age eighteen. He worked his way up to Chief Mate and sailed mostly in the South American and West Indian trade. As a result of his having "jumped ship" in Mobile, Alabama after a tenuous voyage through the "doldrums", he was banned from continuing as a merchant marine officer. As a result, he was drafted into the Canadian Army in January 1918 and sent to France as a machine gunner. In 1918, while in the trenches, he was stricken with rheumatic fever and was evacuated to England, where he recovered and spent the rest of the war, returning home in 1919. He was to find that the sailing ship had been replaced by the steamship and he no longer had a profession. He served as a quartermaster on the Sault Ste Marie Canals, but within a year or so, the demand for ore was slowing and the need for pilots waning. He tried several other trades, but was unhappy with them, and in desperation, after losing his a job in a boiler factory, walked across the bridge at Buffalo, NY, without paying the Head Tax, never to return, earning him the status of an illegal  alien because of the lack of paying the tax. The year was 1922, and he apprenticed to a master painter in Boston, MA to learn the trade. It was on a painting job, that he met a waitress, named Clara Belle Winsor, and three years later they were married , both at the age of thirty nine years. They had only one son, born to them at age 42. They weathered the depression, but  not too well, with little work. What money there was came from  their meager savings. Through all the hard times, there was never a fight, but a lot of love, and devotion  to one another, held everything together. After her death in 1952, he retired from his trade and lived with his son, an army officer, in  Alabama, New Mexico, Massachusetts and Texas. While he never could cope with her death, he seemed to thoroughly enjoy his many granchildren) was born on 15 Sep 1886 at No Middle La Have, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He was baptized on 24 Oct 1886 at Zion Lutheran Church, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He married Clara Belle Winsor, daughter of John Charles Winsor and Sophia Taylor, on 16 Jun 1925 at Cambridge, Middlesex, MA, USA. He died on 4 Apr 1965 at El Paso, El Paso, TX, USA, at age 78  (Died of aortal aneurism in hospital while being treated for edema of the legs).

     2.  George  Isaiah² Shankle (Johann Schenkel, #4) George Isaiah Schenkel was the eldest son of Philip, and followed in his father's footsteps as a fishing skipper and worked in the schooner trade as well in the West Indies trade. He was a

talented individual, being skilled at navigation, carpentry, blacksmithing,  leatherworking and associated crafts. He was a

strict, upright, moral man who tolerated no one who would not put forth his best effort in any undertaking. On the other hand, he was sort of dashing, daring person who loved to race anything, be it horses & buggies, fishing schooners, iceboats or even other ice skaters. His  sons were highly respective of him, but, at the same time, seemed to live in awe of him and his many talents and accomplishments. He was a fair-sized man, standing about six feet, one inch tall and weighing about 200 pounds. In 1918, he was the older man who was with Capt Fred Gerhardt when their fishing schooner was boarded, and then sunk, by the crew of a German U-Boat on the Grand Banks. Since he was able to communicate with the submarine commander in German, they were given a cask of water and some German blackbread to take in their dories for survival. A piece of that blackbread is preseved today in a glass jar at the Lunenburg Fisheries Museum. George Isaiah, Capt Fred Gerhardt and another man rowed a dory 140 miles in 72 hours, when they were picked up by a Newfoundland vessel about eight miles off of St John's. This was accomplished without the aid of a compass. This was accomplished in the fact that they had vast knowledge of the Grand Banks and the surrounding areas, including the coast of Newfoundland) was born on 13 Dec 1858 at Middle La Have, Lunenburg, NS, CAN.

Generation Five

 

 

     16.  Johann Jacob⁵ Schenkel (Hans, #32)  (Johann Jacob, married, first Marie Catherine Dimon on December 3, 1782. She died in 1783, probably in childbirth, and he subsequently married Anna Elizabeth Weil on May 23, 1784. Johann Jacob's will, written in February 1815, made reference to Lots C-5 & C-7, and dispensed his land holdings on the west bank of the La Have River to his sons, Gerhardt and Jacob. It dispensed those lands and house on the east bank of the river to his sons, Michael, Johannes and George. In addition to Ulrich's land, he was given a land grant of 187 acres in 1784, plus he had purchased additional lands on the west bank of the river, making his land  holdings quite extensive. He also obtained La Have River lot C-3 from Philip Hiltz. It is significant that this land never shows up in his will. It is assumed that he purchased this land as a homestead for his mother and step father. In addition, he built a grist mill on one of his lots, probably Northwest Range B, Lot no 1, which provided the family with an alternative source of income. He appears to have been an enterprising person who felt that he had to make his own way in this world, and worked strenuously toward that end. Little is known of his sons, other than that some were farmers, while others took to the sea. John became a shipowner and skipper, while his son, Johann Philip, captained, and owned several fishing schooners in conjunction with his brother, George. These German, Swiss and Montbeliard settlers had lived in this region for many years before taking to the seas as a way of life. The rise of the fishing industry, at this time, was attributed to the invention of the fishing trawls, which became a very efficient way to fish, producing sufficient quantities of fish, to make the enterprise a profitable one) was born circa 1759 at Middle La Have, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He was baptized on 19 Sep 1759 at St John's Anglican Curch, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He married Marie Catherine Demone, daughter of Francois Joseph Demone and Anna Catharina Susanna Herman, on 3 Dec 1782 at Zion Lutheran Church, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He married Anna Elizabeth Priscilla Weil (see #17), daughter of Friederich Weil and A Catharina Volcker (Folcher), on 23 May 1784 at Zion Lutheran Church, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He died on 3 Mar 1815 at Middle La Have, Lunenburg, NS, CAN. He He was born possibly after his father's death.  In addition to the land his father accumulated, he accumulated considerably more, beginning on 30 Jun 1784 when he received a township grant of 187 acres on Dublin Shore, he purchased a large undetermined amount of land on Dublin Shore from Tobias Heininger. In 1796, he purchased La Have River Lot C-3 from the heirs of Daniel Hiltz, the original grantee. In 1795 he acquired La Have River Lots C-2 and C-5 from Philip Krause. He and his sisters, Barbara and Elizabeth, deeded NW Range Lot B-1 to their stepfather, Eberhard Hoffler, who had raised them. Jacob had operated a grist mill on this site. In his will of 1815, he divided his realestate holdings amongst his five sons, with his land on the west side of the river going to Gerhardt and Jacob, and his land on the east side of the river to John, Michael and George. He is believed to have had George as an additional given name, as did his grandson, George Philip James, and his greatgrandson, George Isaiah. None of them ever used this name on a tranaction that I have found. When the death of his son, Gerhard (Garret) was reported, Gerhard's parents were listed as "George & Elizabeth". It is believed that his father's full name was Hanss George Ulrich; and his brother's name was George Heinrich. This latter name was borne out by Granville Township records.

Generation Six

 

 

     32.  Hans Ulrich⁶ Schenkel (Hans, #64)  (The immigration of the Schenkel family to Nova Scotia, from the town of Fehraltorf in Zurich Canton, Switzerland was wrought with disaster.  There were ten children in this family, but only four who survived to emigrate. There were five recorded deaths between 1724 and 1745, and in 1744, their father, Hans jacob, died at the age of 48 years. The latest of the children's deaths occurred the following year.  They must have set out for Rotterdam in the Spring of 1750, there were nine in all.  Their mother, Elizabeth aged 58; Johann Jacob, oldest son, aged 29; Ulrich, aged 27; Magdalene aged 19; Hans Heinrich aged 15; and Elizabeth aged 11. Ulrich was married to Margarethe Bosshard in 1749. She and their 4 month old daughter, and a Godson & nephew Hans Caspar Briner aged 5 accompanied Ulrich. Their trip was a long and arduous one, down the Toss, Thur and Rhein Rivers to Rotterdam. It is doubtful that they traveled in a passenger vessell, but more likely on a raft of logs, which was all most common folk could afford. This was a much-used mode of transport, but was rife with danger of drowning, exposure to the elements and such. Three of them perished on the journey, Ulrich's wife and daughter and his sister Magdalene. When they boarded the "Ann" in June of 1750, they were in two family groups. Their mother, brother Jacob and sister Elizabeth; secondly, Ulrich, brother Hans Heinrich, and nephew Hans Caspar Briner.  They all arrived safely in Halifax on the 2nd of September 1750, but brother Jacob was quarantined aboard the ship due to some epidemic, most likely cholera, and died there as a result. Hans Caspar disappears from the vicualling lists in 1757, and Ulrich succumbed to poor health at age 36 in 1759. Not a very auspiscious start in seeking the New World.      

            Ulrich and Hans Caspar Briner, his wife's young Godson, was accompanied on the voyage by his younger brother, Heinrich. Ulrich was married on Sep 24, 1751 to a widow, Elizabeth Wuerster. They boarded ship again in 1753 and arrived at the Lunenburg site on May 29, 1753. Ulrich and Elizabeth, had a daughter, Elizabeth, baptized on July 2, 1754. Jacob's sister, Elizabeth, married Nicholas Storch on April 24, 1755. Heinrich left La Have and returned to Halifax sometime during 1756. Ulrich and Elizabeth had a second daughter, Barbara, baptized Dec 8, 1756, and they had a son, Johann Jacob, baptized on Sept. 19, 1759. Ulrich died sometime during late 1759  or early 1760 as his widow, Elizabeth, was married to Eberhard Hoffler on June 3, 1760. Ulrich received a land grant in 1753 for Lot C-7, La Have River. Later he acquired Lot C-5. In the registry of lots in 1760, Ulrich owned, in addition to those cited, Lot D-3, Steinfort's Division, 30 acre farm Lots A-5, A-41 & B-1 on the Northwest Range, and 300 acre lot F-6, Fourth Division.  There are no records in the La Have-Lunenburg area for Hans Caspar after 1757, and it is assumed that he died. Ulrich Schenkel died in late 1759 or early 1760. It appears that his children were raised by their mother and stepfather, Eberhard Hoffler, as Ulrich's land holdings seem to have remained intact) was baptized on 28 Mar 1723 at Fehraltorf, Zurich, SWZ. He married Margaretha Bosshard, daughter of Jacob Bosshardt, on 21 Apr 1749 at Fehraltorf, Zurich, SWZ. He married Elizabeth Wuerster widow (see #33) on 24 Sep 1751 at St Paul's Anglican Church, Halifax, Halifax, NS, CAN. He died on 22 Oct 1759 at St John's Anglican Church, La Have, Lunenburg, NS, CAN, at age 36. He Arrived Halifax Harbor, 2 Sep 1750 on the "Ann". He was granted Halifax, North Suburbs town lot, D-1 and his brother, Henry was Granted D-2 On 8 Jun 1753, he moved to Lunenburg and was granted La Have River Lot C-7 (30 acres) In July 1754 he was granted Lot D-3 (300 Acres) for serving in the militia He also registered lots: NW Range B-1, and 1/2 each of lots A-5 and A-41 in conjunction with Johannes Kirn On 3 Dec 1764, his children were granted a 300 Acre lot F-6 in the 4th Division.  On 3 Jun 1760, his widow, Elizabeth, married Eberhard Hoffler with whom she raised her three children by Ulrich, along with her eight children by Hoffler.  The immigration of the Schenkel family to Nova Scotia, from the town of Fehraltorf in Zurich Canton, Switzerland was wrought with disaster.  There were ten children in this family, but only four who emigrated. There were five recorded deaths between 1724 and 1745, and in 1744, their father, Hans Jacob, died at the age of 48 years. The latest of the children's deaths occurred the following year. They must have set out for Rotterdam in the Spring of 1750, there were nine of them in all. Their mother, Elizabeth aged 58; Johann Jacob, oldest son, aged 29; Ulrich, aged 27; Magdalene aged 19; Hans Heinrich aged 15; and Elizabeth aged 11. Ulrich was married to Margarethe Bosshard in 1749. She and their 4 month old daughter, and a Godson & nephew,  Hans Caspar Briner aged 5, accompanied Ulrich.  Their trip was a long and arduous one, down the Toss, Thur and Rhein Rivers to Rotterdam. It is doubtful that they traveled in a passenger vessell, but more likely on a raft of logs, which was all most common folk could afford at that time. This was a much-used mode of transport, but was rife with danger of drowning, exposure to the elements, breakaways, and such. Three of them perished on the journey, Ulrich's wife and daughter, and his sister Magdalene. When they boarded the "Ann" in late June of 1750, they were in two family groups. Firstly, their mother, brother Jacob and sister Elizabeth; secondly, Ulrich, brother Hans Heinrich, and nephew Hans Caspar Briner.  They all arrived safely in Halifax on the 2nd of September 1750, but brother Jacob was quarantined aboard the ship due to some epidemic, most likely cholera, and died there as a result.

They were married at Granville, Annapolis County, and by 1775 had four daughters. There is no record of a male heir, so that his line appears to end right there.

     He Henry was awarded Lot D-2, Back Range, North Suburbs of Halifax, probably as a result of having served in the militia. His brother was awarded Lot D-1, Back Range.

He is next listed as being naturalized in Halifax in July 1758.

The next record is for the purchase of 500 acres of land from a Crispus Shaw on 13 Jul 1774 for the sum of 13 pounds, 15 shillings. Property was listed      as Lot No.4, Granville Township. The next entry in records is his certification for having stood watch at Scotch Fort for a period of ten weeks. This was recorded in the Granville Township Register on 5 Jul 1777 The last record I could find for Henry, himself, was the sale of Granville      Township Lot No.4, Stoney Beach Marsh Lot No.17, Basin Lot No.29, totalling about 500 acres, on 28 Aug 1783, to George Cornwell of New York for the sum of 340 pounds.
