How are all Schochenmaiers related?

Many times I have been asked to explain how all Schochenmaiers are related. I am sure that all of them are remote relatives because I am researcher in family names and I know that such a rare surname as Schochenmaier (doesn't matter how to write) can be of one punctual origin only. But what kind of origin is it? That's the question.

I have some doubts on schAchenm(a|e/i|y)ers (from Bavaria, for example) if they are our relatives but all schOchenm(a|e/i|y)ers are for sure.

Below you'll find my chart of male (sorry, Ladies!) relations among our forefathers and where their offspring are to be found today.



All remarks and comments are welcome!!!

P.S. As for me, I am the offspring of Wilhelm Schochemeier (German flag on the left) who was my great gr. gr. father.

P.P.S. Soviet flag means either there were no children with the last name of Schochenmaier or that family line was shot dead in the purges of 1930s under Stalin.

  1. Just to precise that the chart is not up to date anymore. The person above, the Ancestor of the Eastern Schochenmaiers, the last who was born in Germany (or in the Kingdom of Württemberg) was CARL SCHOCHENMAIER and NOT Gottlieb. We now can prove it based on the archives and new data.
