SCHICK
"The Schick family home was the largest home in Darmstadt and it was also a business building, three stories above ground and one under.  They call the basement, unter hausan.  That's where they keep the cow, horse and chickens and it is as clean as the house.  The ground floor is where Great great grandfather Schick kept the hay, grain, flour and spuds.  The walls are from two to four feet thick of stone and floors of rock and brick and the bake-ovens were built in the walls of the second floor. He baked for himself and others custom-baked as we call it and sold groceries.  People would bring their bread and pies and cakes for him to bake for them.  He used to bake for church festivals and weddings. It was a good business.  The family lived in the third story.  The roof was tile but not like the tile here.  The Great great grandma used to plan and prepare food for the wealthy.  Dad's mother told him she used to help her."

"He was a baker by trade and had the only bakery in Darmstadt and was the closest one within a six hour drive of the only other one which was in Frankfurt Am Mein.  Six hours means by horse travel.  He also handled hay, grain, and potatoes and groceries.  He had the largest three story brick building in town.  The horse, cow, hogs, chickens and sheep were housed in what we call the basement.  The hay, grain and potatoes on the first or ground floor.  The Bakery was built into the second floor and also the grocerys were on the second floor.  The living quarters were on the third floor.  People all live in town and don't live on the farms in Germany.  The town of Darmstadt had a population of about 50,000 but is now 175,000.  Frankfurt now about 800,000."

"The Schick family is very ancient and widespread.  It has been traced in Italy, Moravia, Bohemia, Lorraine, Schleswig and Thuringia, but all the lines seem to stem from Landgrave Balthasar Schick, c. 1360.
