The ZACHARIAS SCHÖMBS WORLDSITE
The ZACHARIAS SCHÖMBS WORLDSITE
This WORLDSITE will introduce those people of the World descended from Zacharias
Schömbs -- the
Schambs, Schembs, Schemes, Schoembs, Schombs, Schaembs and Schömbs, as well as the descendants of
Schömbs daughters whose surnames changed through marriage.
The WORLDSITE includes books and much other information about Zacharias Schömbs and his descendants.
"The Family of Zacharias Schömbs" by Reinhold Schembs
(Mainz/Laubenheim, Germany) deals with the history of the family back to 1645
(the Thirty Years War) and
continuing into the 21st Century in Germany. It is available in both
German and English. "The Auswanderer Schömbs"
by Jim Schembs (Phoenix, Arizona USA) is the story in English of those who
decided to leave Germany, and their lives and descendants thereafter.

SCHÖMBS 2023 |
|
|
Due first to COVID-19, and then the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it has been necessary to reschedule the Familientreffen (Family Reunion). Originally planned for 2020, it will now be held in 2023 on the first weekend in July.
This will be our fifth Familientreffen, the first being in 1999. One hundred twenty cousins from outside Germany have said they are making plans to come to 2023. They are from ten countries on five continents! We know of no cousins in Africa or Antarctica. When you add in the local Germans there will be between 250 and 300 cousins at Schömbs 2023! It will be our largest Treffen by far!
Details are on the WORLDSITE. Be sure to let us know of your interest. You can express your interest through the "Contact Us" in the Navigation Bar at the top of the Homepage.

The Fourth Schömbs Familientreffen -- 2015
was FANTASTIC!
About 150 relatives met in Herrnsheim, Germany, for the Familientreffen. Relatives came from
Israel, Australia, Canada, the United States, France and Germany. The
big party was on Saturday, 21 June, 2015. But other activities
were on Friday (walking tour of Undenheim and the hometowns of emigrants), Saturday morning trip to Heidelberg Castle and a private showing of the
sculptures of Walter and Eckhard Schembs and the light painting of Johannes Schembs, and a Sunday Rhein River
cruise and dinner in Oppenheim.
Many more (and larger) pictures are available on
the WORLDSITE.
