Descendants of Maximillian Schonder
settled in Erie, PA 
Max had a son Herman who is in his 80's Herman's parents divorced when he was young. His father Max later returned to Bischofsheim where he married his long lost sweetheart. Max died in Bischofsheim.
Since Herman can  only remember his father, we have made no other connections to current Schonder families at this time. I spoke to Herman Schonder on the phone and he relayed a few family stories and interesting hobbies.
