Stephan Herold
Great-grandfather of Anna Josephine (Herold) Schneider

Hardheim records indicate that Stephan Herold came to that town from nearby Erfeld. A search of Erfeld records reveals only one possible Stephan Herold--one born on 5 Mar 1778, the third of four sons born to Stephan Herold and his cousin Maria Barbara Herold. At some point, he moved to Hardheim and bought farmland. Stephan's descendants would still be farming in Hardheim in 1998.

On Nov 27 1811, Stephan married Barbara Steffan (b. 1794), the daughter of Johann Kaspar Steffan and Margaretha Hollerbach. After Stephan's death on 22 Apr 1824, Barbara married Michael Anton Schauerman on 17 Apr 1826. Michael died 12 years later (26 Aug 1838). Barbara survived her second husband by 20 years, dying on on 28 May 1858.
