THE SCHNEIDER FAMILY GENEALOGY From Arzviller, Moselle Department, Lorraine Region, France The SCHNEIDER Coat of Arms This coat of arms is known to be of the Gedogius SCHNEIDER family from the Saarland and Rheinland- Pfalz States of Germany. I have not found any genealogical connection to this family and the Jean SCHNEIDER family from Arzviller. However, the Alsace-Lorraine region of France borders the German Saarland and Rheinland-Pfalz States. Alsace- Lorraine also belonged to Germany at times. So it is very possible that the families are related, and this shield may represent both of these families. The Shield of Arzviller also includes a standing lion, and Moselle’s shield includes three birds, showing more possible connections between the two families. Important features of the shield: The lion, standing, A knight, A castle, Three shells, possibly silver color, A bird, blue in color. The colors shown here may not be a true representation of original colors.

THE SCHNEIDER FAMILY GENEALOGY

From Arzviller, Moselle Department, Lorraine Region, France

The SCHNEIDER Coat of Arms

This coat of arms is known to be of the Gedogius SCHNEIDER family from the Saarland and Rheinland-Pfalz States of Germany. I have not found any genealogical connection to this family and the Jean SCHNEIDER family from Arzviller. However, the Alsace-Lorraine region of France borders the German Saarland and Rheinland-Pfalz States. Alsace-Lorraine also belonged to Germany at times. So it is very possible that the families are related, and this shield may represent both of these families. The Shield of Arzviller also includes a standing lion, and Moselle’s shield includes three birds, showing more possible connections between the two families.

Important features of the shield: The lion, standing,

A knight, A castle,

Three shells, possibly silver color, A bird, blue in color.

The colors shown here may not be a true representation of original colors.
