GEORGE SCHOLTZE (SCHULTZ) [E 68] and his DESCENDANTS

[68] GEORGE SCHOLTZE [E 68], b Dec. 6, 1711; baptized Dec. 8, 1711; sponsors: Balthasar Kriebel, Anna Scholtz, Maria Kriebel; d Oct. 30, 1776. He was the son of Melchior and Susanna Schultz of Nieder Harpersdorf, and was the brother of Rev. Christopher Schultz [E 70]. On Jan. 31, 1744, he was married by Rev. Balthasar Hoffman to MARIA YEAKEL [E 207]; dau Abraham and Anna (Heydrick) Yeakel. Maria Yeakel was b Jan. 27, 1719, in N. Hdrf.; baptized Jan. 29, 1719; sponsors: Christof Kriebel, Susanna Jackel, Maria Beyer; d Dec. 13, 1797. Both George Schultz and Maria Yeakel came to Pa. in 1734. George Schultz was naturalized June 21, 1743. With his brothers, Melchior [E 69] and Rev. Christopher [E 70], George Schultz bought land in Upper Hanover Twp., Pa. [Plate C XVIII.] Both he and his wife are buried in Washington Schw. Cem.

George Schultz bequeathed to his son Abraham 223 acres of land, and to his son Melchior, all lands situated in Buffalo Twp. in the County of Northumberland, or 341 acres, 50 p., adjoining lands of George Kriebel, Christopher Schultz and others. [Cf. Will of Geo. Schultz.] The Schultz brothers were large land owners.

The three Schultz brothers-George [E 68], Melchior [E 69], and Christopher [E 70]-were the sons of Melchior and Susanna Schultz. The father preceded the mother in death, and according to the Berthelsdorf Church Records, Susanna, wife of Melchior Schultz, Schlesischer Shuster, died March 30, 1732, aged 46³4 years, and was buried April 2, 1732, mit einer collecte. The grandparents of the Schultz brothers were named Melchior and Anna. This Melchior Scholtz died prior to the migration; hence his widow, Anna Scholtz, remained in Germany, where she died March 30, 1739.

Abraham Schultz was born on his father's plantation in Upper Hanover Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. He was the eldest son of George and Maria Yeakel Schultz. In early youth he imbibed a genuine love for books and literature; and although the educational facilities were very limited, he diligently pursued his studies. He was naturally endowed with a comprehensive mind and a keen, retentive memory. Reared a Schwenkfelder, he devoted himself at the arly age of twelve to the transcribing of some of the more important of the Schwenckfeld theological documents. To one of these transcriptions made in 1761, he affixed his signature thus: "Abraham Scholtze." Another extensive manuscript of which he made a transcript is "The Schwenkfelder Compendium of Faith," compiled by Christopher Schultz.

Having thus early in life become imbued with the tenets of Schwenckfeld, he steadfastly affirmed his adherence to the same until the end of his life. As a member of the Society of Schwenkfelders, he served as a trustee, a school inspector, teacher, and catechist. The Goshenhoppen Schwenkfelder School Record shows that Abraham Schultz was engaged as a teacher on November 21, 1775, for a term of three months, at a salary of eight pounds. He opened the school on December 5, 1775, in the home of Baltzer Schultz. Wherever opportunity offered, he encouraged others to carefully examine the doctrines for which the fathers had fled from home and country.

His command of both the German and English languages enabled him to engage in the writing of instructive letters. One of them, written June 14, 1783, to some surviving Schwenkfelders, or their relatives, in Silesia, Christopher Groh, Johann F. Heintze, Jeremiah Heydrick and others in the

GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES 941

Harpersdorf—Probsthayn region of Silesia, is especially remarkable. In it he gave an account of the life among the Schwenkfelders during the period of the American Revolution; it also contains an excellent description of the effects and consequences of the war. His letter addressed to George Kriebel in 1794, with regard to the Sacraments, is a valuable presentation of the interpretation entertained by his people at that time. Another letter written October 22, 1791, to his nephew, Dr. Christopher Heydrick, who had just reached his majority and was then a senior in the Medical School at the University of Pennsylvania, is a gem; the missive is full of excellent advice and is an example of elegance, both in style and in the choice of words. The original is still carefully preserved by the Heydrick family in western Pennsylvania, and is in addition a model of neatness and beauty of penmanship. The following paragraph from that letter reveals the splendid judgment and noble culture of Abraham Schultz, at the same time evincing an idealism worthy of emulation. The paragraph reads thus:

"Next to a teacher of the Gospel I think there is not a Class of men that should be more circumspect and careful to promote the Happiness of Mankind than a Physician. A Physician I believe should be a man of sound religious Principles and a tender Conscience, his chief aim should not be great temporal Honor or Emolument (which is the most delusive Phantom of our depraved Nature) but as above said, an ardent desire to promote the Happiness of Mankind. Whether such Principles are now and then inculcated by your Teachers I do not know, but such Principles I suppose would not be unworthy of any Professor of your Faculty."

In the community in which he lived, Abraham Schultz served as a scrivener and counsellor. In 1796 and 1797, he with Cadwallader Evans, Joseph Tyson and John Shoemaker, represented Montgomery County in the General Assembly of the Commonwealth. During that session he served as a member of numerous important committees. Among other things he supported a bill enabling trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to vacate seats of members for not attending the meetings. It is also of interest to note the following petition regarding the construction of a stone bridge across the Perkiomen at Collegeville, Pa. This petition was introduced Jan. 9, 1797, entitled: "A Petition from a number of inhabitants of Montgomery County, praying leave to raise, by way of lottery, the sum of $20,000 to be applied for the purpose of building a stone arched bridge over the Perkiomen Creek where it crosses the great road from Philadelphia." On motion and by special order this petition was read the second time in order to be referred to Messrs. Evans, Schultz, Tyson, J. Shoemaker, Lieb, Lewis and Gehr, to report thereon. [E. E. S. J.]

Benjamin Shultz, M.D., the eldest son of Abraham Schultz, was born and reared in Upper Hanover Twp., Montg. Co., Pa., on the farm at present (1922) in the possession of Roland Dicky. The educational facilities, provided by the Schwenkfelder School System of the colonial period, surrounded his early life. He prepared for a professional career, graduating from the department of medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in the year 1795, with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. At the time of his graduation he submitted an inaugural dissertation to the examination of the Rev. John Ewing, S. T. P. Provost, the Trustees, and University Medical Faculty. This was done on the twenty-first day of May, 1795. The dissertation was published under the title: "An Inaugural Botanico-Medical Dissertation, on the Phytolacca Decandra of Linnaeus. By Benjamin Shultz, of Pennsylvania, Member of the Philadelphia Medical Society. Philadelphia, printed by Thomas Dobson, At the Stone-House, No. 41, South Second-Street, 1795." It is a book of fifty-five printed pages and one plate. The common name of the plant treated in the discussion is "Poke" or "Poke-Weed." Dr. Shultz dedicated this, his first publication, to his instructors and friends, Caspar Wistar, M.D., and Benjamin Smith Barton, M.D. Two copies of this very scarce book are preserved in the Schwenkfelder Historical Library at Pennsburg, Pa.

Two months after his graduation from the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Shultz delivered an oration before the Mosheimian Society of Philadelphia. This was likewise published, under the title: "An Oration delivered before The Mosheimian Society, on July 23d, 1795; Being the Day appointed for their Yearly Meeting. By Benjamin Shultz, M.D., Philadelphia; Printed By T. Dobson, at the Stone-House, No. 41, South Second-Street. M, DCC, XCV." This is a quarto tract of fourteen pages. A copy of this rare print is preserved in the Ridgway branch of the Philadelphia Library. The Mosheim-ian Society "was instituted in the year 1789, in the city of Philadelphia, for the purpose of keeping up the knowledge of the German language, and to preserve it in its purity. It was named after Mosheim, a celebrated writer in Germany, who made the most strenuous exertions to purify this elegant language from every foreign word and name, in order to simplify it as much as possible."

During the years following his graduation, Dr. Shultz appears to have engaged in medicinal experimentation. This led him, with the aid of some friends, to establish a balsam farm along the Green Valley road in Hereford Twp., Berks Co., Pa. The project proved an unsuccessful one and

942 GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES

dissolved about the year 1800. Subsequently he located at or near Middelberg in what is now Snyder Co., Pa. Very little is known of his later life. He appears to have suffered great affliction through an accident which necessitated the amputation of a limb. Without the assistance of a physician he personally directed the operation, although he died from the effects on March 5, 1814. The place of his interment is somewhere in the Middelberg region. [E.

Melchior Schultz was elected a minister of the Society of Schwenkfelders and served very acceptably in that capacity for many years. By occupation he was a farmer, living in Worcester Twp., Montg. Co., Pa., on the farm known as Washington's Headquarters (see below), which is occupied today (1922) by the Joseph Schultz family [68-21]. In the possession of the latter family is Melchior Schultz's account book—a most interesting relic—which shows his personal accounts on the farm, together with his accounts as trustee; it clearly proves also what care he exercised in listing all items of income and expenditure. Through the courtesy of the Joseph Schultz family, we reproduce below some extracts from the book.

REV. MELCHIOR SCHULTZ'S HOMESTEAD OR "WASHINGTON'S HEADQUARTERS."

This house is situated in Worcester Twp. on the road leading from Center Point to West Point, Pa., and was built by Peter Wentz in 1758. The date-stone bearing the initials of Peter Wentz and his wife, Rosannah, is plainly visible on the front of the house. In addition to the initials of the builders the following inscription is found on the stone:

"Jesu kom in mein Haus,

Weig nimmer mer haraus;

Kom mit deiner Gnaden guet

Und stelle meine sel zu fried."

(Free Translation)

"Jesus, come into my house,

Leave it nevermore;

Come with Thy blessed favor,

And bring peace to my soul."

Rev. Melchior Schultz came into possession of this property in 1794 and it has been in the family of his descendants ever since, being occupied at present by his great-grandson, Isaac Schultz. The house consists of two stories, an attic and also a rear wing, and is built of stone. In outward appearance it resembles the better class of Colonial farm house, a few examples of which are still to be found.

Another curiosity on this property is a large stone water trough, long in use by the Schultz family. It was hewn out of solid rock with immense labor in some unknown former period. The trough has always belonged to the premises and promises to be as serviceable a century hence as it is today.

History tells us that when the Continental army was in camp in this vicinity, both before and after the battle of Germantown which was fought on the fourth of October, 1777, Washington established his headquarters in this house on the sixteenth of October. While staying here, General Washington wrote a letter to Congress in reference to the Battle of Saratoga, which proved to be a victory for the Americans and resulted in the surrender of Burgoyne. In this letter he speaks of camping in the same spot before the Battle of Germantown was fought, but how long he stayed there is unknown. The letter also contains the following paragraph:

"It is with the highest satisfaction that I congratulate Congress on the success of our arms, at the northward in the action of the 7th, an event of the most interesting importance at this critical juncture. From the happy train in

GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES 943

which things then were, I hope we shall soon hear of the more decisive advantages. We moved this morning from the encampment at which we had been for six or seven days past, and have just arrived at the grounds we occupied here

before the action of the 4th."

After the Battle of Germantown, the British troops are said to have pursued the soldiers as far north as the interior of Worcester Twp., committing depredations on the property of the Wentz family, which were so serious that Peter Wentz afterward received 125 pounds from the State as compensation.

During Washington's stay in the old stone house, some of the American soldiers were encamped in the woodland northeast of the dwelling. This woodland included what was later the "Jesse Yerger" farm, which also belonged to the Wentz property. In the rear of the barn two soldiers are said to have been buried. Many musket and cannon balls, rusty camp spades and other relics, testifying to the presence of the army, have been found in that vicinity from time to time.

One of the traditions extant is to the effect that when the cheering news of victory at Saratoga was received, the soldiers in their joy fired a salute so close to the house where General Washington was quartered, that the greater portion of the glass in the windows was shattered. It seems that when Washington took possession of this house for his headquarters, Peter Wentz did not vacate the premises, but remained and gave the General a portion of the house for his use. General Washington occupied two chambers in the west corner of the house, one on the first story where he took his meals, and the other, a large square room on the second floor, which served as his bedroom. A door—no longer in existence—then connected the dining room downstairs with a small kitchen, where his meals were prepared by his own cook, probably a colored woman. This kitchen was kept securely locked in the absence of the faithful cook, lest some Tory might obtain entrance and throw poison into the food.

Another tradition current among the families of the vicinity, is that during Washington's stay there, one of the neighbors, Philip Stong, and his wife, Barbara, were bold enough to call upon the General. Washington was so well pleased that he invited them to supper, which they enjoyed together in the cozy west dining room. In after years old Barbara Stong, who lived near the present mill on Skippack Road, delighted in relating her reminiscences of Washington and of this episode in particular.

Among the provisions of the last will of Rev. Melchior Schultz, made in 1826, was the clause that his widow, Salome, should have for her use during the remainder of her life "the kitchen and stove room adjoining the north end of my house as well as the room in the second story called Washington's room."

Isaac Schultz was a farmer by occupation and resided on the farm, now (1922) the property of the Levi G. Schultz Estate in Upper Hanover Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. It is a portion of the original Schultz tract, the old homestead being owned today by R. L. Dicky. A literary spirit pervaded the atmosphere of the home of his childhood and this made a permanent impression upon him. At the early age of twelve he was a pupil in the Hosensack Academy under the care of George Carl Stocks who was the instructor at that time. That he was a proficient Latin student is evidenced by original Latin letters—still extant— written by him as a pupil to his fellow-students. Isaac Schultz always remembered his Latin teacher with warm affection, and when in after years the latter through misfortunes was reduced to poverty, his erstwhile pupil solicited funds from among the former students of the Academy to give relief to their teacher.

In the Society of Schwenkfelders Isaac Schultz first of all was a teacher, and in the years between 1798 and 1800 and later, he became a foremost leader. Having been elected, May 19, 1827, as secretary of the Society, he served in that capacity for more than thirty years, and was succeeded on May 15, 1858, by Joshua Schultz. During those years he likewise served as secretary for the trustees of the Literary Fund of the Schwenkfelders, but on May 11, 1850, he declined reelection to that office.

Although all his records for the Society were written in German, he possessed a mastery of English as well, and his letters to his children and grandchildren reveal a fineness of diction and choice selection of thought and vocabulary that win our admiration. In later years he was frequently invited to write for the press of the day; the themes of the numerous papers prepared by him, many of which appeared in public print, invariably related to the history of his people. An example of this nature of his work is to be found in I. Daniel Rupp's "HE PASA EKKLESIA—An Original History of the Religious Denominations at present existing in the United States," published in Philadelphia in 1844, and again inra revised form in 1859. In each of these editions appears a chapter on "The Schwenkfelders," written by "Isaac Schultz, Berks County, Pennsylvania"—obviously an error for "Montgomery

County." He also translated numerous German documents into the English language. His services to his community were of an eminent character and were always rendered for the sake of improvement and progress. [E. E. S. J.]

Amos Schultz was born on the homestead originally established by the three brothers, George, Melchior and Christopher Schultz in Upper Hanover Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. Reared in an atmosphere which fostered the intellectual as well as the spiritual training of the child, he was early sent to the local private schools, especially those under the direction of the celebrated early Schwenkfelder School System. Beyond this he attended the private school of Dr. James Patterson at Germantown, Phila. Although this limits his actual attendance in the schools of his time, by dint of personal effort he nevertheless improved his mind and gained the reputation of having far more than an average intelligence.

Before the age of twenty-five he entered the service of his uncle, Joseph Schultz, who owned a farm in Douglass Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. Following his uncle's death, Amos Schultz purchased the farm.

The natural endowments and the perseverance of Mr. Schultz, soon made him a potent factor in every enterprise, which tended to improve the community. Enterprising and progressive as he was, he openly advocated better local educational facilities. One of the first commissions issued under the new constitution of Pennsylvania was granted to Amos Schultz, designating him as a Justice of the Peace; this office he filled very creditably during the decade of 1840 to 1850. The conveyances written and executed by him challenge universal admiration.

As success crowned his persistent toil he added to his holdings of real estate until his domains extended well into Berks County along both banks of the West Branch of the Perkiomen. Discovering brick clay in one of his meadows, he engaged in the manufacture of brick and these in turn were devoted

to the carrying out of extensive building operations. Among these was the erection of what was for many years known as the County Line Flour and Grist Mill near Niantic, Pa., which has been operating since 1861. Comparatively early in his career, Amos Schultz was unanimously nominated as a candidate for the office of Senator of Pa., and at a time when conditions assured his election, but he insisted that his name be withdrawn from the ticket, and his wishes prevailed. Similarly in the later years of his life he declined an election into the directorate of the National Bank of Boyertown.

Amos Schultz was a devoted member and regular attendant of the Schwenkfelder Church and filled the most important offices of his church at different times. One of the delights of his life was the reading of literature which improved the mind and contributed to the spiritual welfare of the individual. Every worthy cause, irrespective of creed, readily won his support. By nature and training he was a lover of education and although advanced in years he cheerfully became the first contributor toward the re-establishment of Perkiomen Seminary in 1892. It was largely through his influence that this effort was successfully launched and promoted. Similarly he was one of the first to advocate the publication and give his support to the "Corpus Schwenckfeldianorum."

The career of Amos Schultz is a notable example of the result of perseverance, industry and rigid adherence to high principles. In all the benevolent services he rendered his time and community he was loyally supported by his wife.

Oil portraits of Mr. and Mrs. Amos Schultz adorn the walls of the library at Perkiomen School; these were presented in 1920, by the Amos Schultz Family Union, an active organization founded by his descendants in honor and to the memory of Mr. and Mrs. Schultz. His name is likewise connected with a considerable number of books and papers in the Schwenkfelder Historical Library. [E. E. S. J.]

Lucina K. Schultz lives at Palm, Pa. (1922). She is one of the most highly respected women in the Schwenkfelder Church today. No one has a deeper interest in the welfare of the Church and its organizations than Miss Schultz. For many years she has engaged in benevolent and charitable work, and has been a most generous supporter of the "Corpus Schwenckfeldianorum," "The Schwenkfeldian," and our missionaries in China. The Ladies' Aid Society of the Palm Church receives a large share of her attention also. In fact there is no activity of the Church that is not actively supported by her labor and gifts. All this is done in her quiet modest way, for many of her charities are given anonymously, as she never desires to have her name mentioned in connection with her benefactions. May she always be loved and honored for her sweet devotion to the interests of the Church.

Miss Schultz is also one of the guarantors for the publication of this book.

950 GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES

Daniel S. Schultz (Shultz) was born on the ancestral Schultz homestead in Upper Hanover Twp., of the present Montg. Co., in Pa. His early education was received in part at Chestnut Hill and Norristown. Before his marriage he taught at Boyertown, Pa., and other places, at the same time studying surveying and reading law under Judge Stauffer. After his marriage in 1841, he located in Schultzville, Berks Co., Pa., and shortly afterward was elected Justice of the Peace, an office held by him for twenty-five years. As magistrate, surveyor and conveyancer, his abilities gave him far more arduous duties to perform than fall to the lot of the ordinary "squire." Diligent attention to the interest of clients, accurate acquaintance with law, and sound discrimination in his legal decisions characterized all his work. It is said of Mr. Schultz that not one of his decisions as a Justice was ever reversed by a court.

His well-deserved reputation as a village lawyer was appropriately rewarded by Gov. John F. Hart-ranf t's appointment of him as Notary Public-an office continued until the death of Mr. Schultz. He was also a member of the Goshenhoppen Mutual Fire Insurance Company from its inception, and served first as its secretary and later as its president. For a number of years he engaged in the coal and lumber business at Barto, Pa.

Mr. Schultz was a close student of Schwenkfelder history and as secretary of the "Upper District Conference," was one of the leaders of the denomination. He was also one of the instigators of the "Corpus" movement, and served as a member of the Publishing Committee of the first Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelders, being a co-author with the late William A. Yeakle in compiling most of the biographical sketches that appear in that book. Having a ready command of both the German and English languages, Mr. Schultz translated into English a great many of the German documents pertaining to the history of the Schwenkfelders, for the use of the late Judge Heydrick in writing the historical sketch of "The Schwenkfelders," as well as for other historians that were interested in the literature of the Schwenkfelders. As secretary of the Conference, Mr. Schultz was the scribe who carried on the so-called "Barclay Correspondence" with Robert Barclay of England. [Cf. The Schwenkfeldian, Vol. II, p 60; Vol. III, pp 8, 19, 24.] There are many letters and papers in the Historical Library at Pennsburg, beautifully executed by Mr. Schultz, for the purpose of giving information to inquirers or for compiling data on the early history of the Schwenkfelders.

As magistrate, surveyor, conveyancer, translator, and secretary, Mr. Schultz truly led a busy, useful life, and was highly respected by all who knew him. [H. S.]

Joseph K. Schultz was born on the old Amos Schultz homestead in Upper Hanover Twp., Montg. Co., Pa., and now resides a short distance from his birthplace. He attended the public schools in his vicinity and afterwards was a student in a private school at Norristown, Pa. Mr. Schultz is proprietor of the Wave Roller Mills, Barto, Pa., but retired from active duties in 1898. While he conducted the mill, he at the same time was a farmer. He is also a very successful apiarist.

Mr. Schultz served as Moderator of the Schwenkfelder Church of the Upper District for several terms; was treasurer of the Charity Fund of the same church for twenty years; manager of the Sunday School; treasurer of the Palm Schwenkfelder Church for ten years; and has been a member of the Board of Home and Foreign Missions of the Schwenkfelder Church since its organization. Mr. Schultz has also served as president of the "Amos Schultz Family Union" since its inception.

Edwin K. Schultz was born on the original Amos Schultz homestead in Douglas Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. His scholastic education was limited to such as the local public schools of his time provided.

For ten years he was a miller in his father's grist and flour mill, after which he moved to the farm where he was born, and for thirty-one years was a successful farmer, besides being president and manager of the Niantie Dairymen's Association.

In 1898 he was elected a director of the National Bank of Boyertown, Pa., and in January, 1905, was elected president of that institution, which office he held until January, 1922, when he resigned; he is still a director of the bank.

Mr. Schultz has had the unique experience of never having lost a dollar in fraudulent or in "get-rich-quick" investments. No promoter can persuade him to invest a penny in anything but the soundest securities.

Mr. Schultz has been the Treasurer of Perkiomen School ever since it was taken over by the Schwenkf elders, and has always been a heavy contributor to its finances; and during certain financial stringencies he has carried the entire burden of finances himself to tide the school over difficult periods. He states that investing money in Perkiomen School had paid him the biggest dividends of any of his investments, in the product of fine young men and women that the School starts on their careers.

After the death of Rev. William S. Anders in 1907, Mr. Schultz was elected to succeed him as President of the Board of Publication of the Schwenkfelder Church, which position he still holds (1922). It is largely due to the wise leadership and optimism of Mr. Schultz that the Board of Publication has been able to accomplish so much in spite of tremendous discouragements. The publication and financing of the "Corpus Schwenckfeldianorum" was a monumental task for such a small church body as the Sehwenkfelders, but Mr. Schultz is always ready to overcome what seem like insurmountable obstacles by pledging sufficient finances to meet the Board's obligations and relying upon other members of the Schultz family to come to his rescue, who never fail to heed his call.

954 GENEALOGICAL RECORD OI' THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES

When the various church organizations were consolidated into one organization in 1911, Edwin K. Schultz was chosen as Moderator by the General Conference, which position he held until 1918, when failing health forced him to resign. During his term as Moderator, Mr. Schultz was successful in welding into one organization the different church bodies and his leadership was an inspiration at every church conference. Coming from a distinguished line of Schultz ancestry, Edwin K. Schultz is living out the traditions of his forbears, and his life is an inspiration and example for the faithful Schwenkfelder to follow.

Owen K. Schultz was born in the original Amos Schultz homestead in Douglass Twp., Montg. Co., Pa. He attended the Schultzville Independent School, Washington Twp., Berks Co., Pa.

In 1880 he took possession of "Clover Hill Farm" in lower Berks Co., specializing in dairying, and became one of the most progressive and successful farmers in his county. He retired from farming in 1902.

Mr. Schultz was one of the organizers and has been treasurer of the Niantic Dairymen's Association since 1889; director of the Reading Bone Fertilizer Company since 1905; treasurer of the Douglass Telephone Company since 1910; also director of the Niantic Electric Light and Power Company since 1920, and since 1910, he has served as a director of the National Bank of Boyertown. He was a deacon of the Schwenkfelder Church of the Upper District for two terms; manager of the Sunday School for twenty years. In 1909, Mr. Schultz was appointed a member of the Building Committee of the Palm Schwenkfelder Church and took an active part in the construction of said church. He has since acted as treasurer of that committee, and is one of the guarantors for the publication of this book.
