Second Generation

Children of Johann Jacob Schott and Elizabeth Berrier/Berger
Johann George Schott (1773-1850) m. Maria Boeckel (1781-1849)

Elizabeth Schott (1779-1781)
Johannes (John) Schott/Shutt (1782-1860) m. Anna Elizabeth Hauser (1781-1866)
*Friedrich Jacob Schott (1785-1849) m. ? 1) Sarah Hess, 2) Barbara Berrier (1774-1810), 3) Elizabeth Rothrock
   (1788-1826, d/o Valentine Rothrock and Eva Elisabeth Volz), 4) Maria Salome Lanius (1783-1849), widow of John Holder,
   and 5) Sibley? Isabel?? Northern, probably a widow.
unnamed daughter b. & d. 21 Mar 1787
Eva Barbara Schott (1789-?) m. David K. Michaels (c. 1785-1862) (died in Coles Co., IL)
Christina Schott (1792-?) m. Philip Rothrock (1785-ca. 1840), son of Philip Rothrock and Eva Elizabeth Weller
Christian Schott (1794-1868) m. Catharina Boeckel (1798 - bef. 1850)
Maria Magdalena Schott (1797-1882), m. John Kell (1791-1863) (moved to Sequatchie Valley, TN betw.1840-50)

*There is a Stokes Co. marriage bond for Sally Hess and Frederick Shuts, 1804, but we aren't sure this is Friedrich Schott. Can anyone confirm?

There is a Forsyth County marriage record for "Zebeby" Northern and Frederich Shutt on 22 Jun 1849. "Sibley" Shutt then married Christian Essix on 25 Jan 1850. In the 1850 census her name is given as "Isibel", and she seems to have a daughter, Amanda Northern, age 12. Maria Salome Lanius Holder Schott died in January 1849, and Friedrich Jacob didn't die until July 18 of that year. Moravian records at the time of his death refer to him as a married man, not a widower, so it would appear that he married again in June and died less than a month later.

Shutt/Hanes Home

Legend is that this house was built by the Dunkers as a church. The house was the residence of Christian Schott/Shutt and family until around 1854 when they moved to Davie County. At that time Lewis Hanes bought the house and by 1857 had hired Abraham Faw to built an addition as seen here (see: June 1, 1856 Jacob Hanes letter & Apr. 28, 1858 Lewis Hanes letter in the Nathan Jarvis letters). This 1920 picture shows Laura Hanes on the porch step. She was d/o of Edwin Hanes, who was 1st cousin to Lewis Hanes.

The John Edward Bell Shutt House

The Shutt House is a typical conservative homestead representative of the simple stylistic details of the post-war rebuilding era. This compound house connects a hall and parlor built by J.E.B. Shutt in 1885, by way of a breezeway to an I-house he added twenty years later in 1905. The front (west) focus of the house is its symmetrically composed three-bay facade with three coupled two over two sliding windows under the eaves, a hip-roofed porch with wood-sheathed ceiling and wooden floor, and a panel front door with two glazed panes. Equally striking is the spindle work of J.E.B. Shutt in the turned and squared posts with matching balusters and molded railings.

The Shutt family settled in the community of Advance (Shady Grove until 1877), Davie County, N.C. in 1855. The Shutts, skilled in woodworking and carpentery, built and shipped furniture, wagon wheels, grain cradles, and coffins. J.E.B. Shutt was the only licensed undertaking establishment in the northeasten part of Davie County, and served the area for 25 years until he sold his franchise to Kirkman Co. in Lexington, N.C in c. 1930. He continued, with his son Walter Wesley Monroe Shutt, to sell coffins and work in the woodworking trade until his death on June 8, 1932. Walter continued the family woodworking shop (known as Grandy Shutt’s Wood Shop) until his death in 1973.

The J.E.B. Shutt House was entered into the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of Interior on May 16, 1996 and is owned by a descendant of J.E.B. Shutt.
