bullet  General Notes:

Family genealogy of William Morris, Kackley, & Shryock <http://www.gbnf.com/genealog2/kackley/html/notes.HTM#NI01180> as researched by Cathy Babbs mailto:cbabbs@worthlink.net> :
Clara May Shryock in her genealogy, and Gusta Eloise Shryock in her genealogy, quote a letter from Maizie Leland, (5 Jan 1931 : New York City) widow of Frank Kimball Leland, who researched while abroad the Shryock line. (to Capt. Thomas J. Shryock Jr. of 412 Lawn Ridge Road, Orange, NJ) The letter quotes Frank's diary as stating the births and deaths :
Wilhelm Friedrick:Baron van Schrieck - born 1545 died 1583
Karl Friedrick:Baron Van Schrieck - born 1580 died 1630
Jarick Hans van Schrieck - born 1610 died 1685
Friedrick van Schrieck - born 1668 and died 1734 his wife - Hildegarde von Steuben - born 1682 died 1735.
On the next page of her introduction, GES lists the three brothers as:
George-Jarick and wife Barbara Johannes Sr. (HANS) and wife Susanna Kern (no explanation for use of Johannes or for Sr.) Jacob (Jakop) and wife Hilda von Stidinger. GES notes that the Johannes who arrived in 1732, Christian who arrived in 1736, and Johan-Adam who arrived in 1738 are probably brothers or cousins late Frank Kinball Leland, Ph. D., who studied in Heidelberg, Germany, and who made extensive researches while there, stated that the three brothers were son of Friedrick von Schrieck, who came from the northern part of the Kingdom of Prussia. (the brothers to which reference was made were: the sons, shown as his Frederick's descendants in this PAF (from DESCENDANTS OF HANS JARICK (OR HANS JERG) SCHREYACK (JOHANNES GEORGE SCHREYACK), by Rhea Duryea Johnson (Mrs. W. Harvey Johnson), 6208 North Fairhill St., Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. (1945.)
Data concerning the antecedents of these immigrant Schreyack brothers have been printed in the lineage of Col. Thomas Jacob Shryock, Jr. in "The Compendium of American Genealogy" (Vol. 5, pp. 485-486) and in "The Shryock genealogy - Descendants of the Immigrant Ancestor "John Schryock" by Joseph Grundy Shryock. Portions of these records are given below, with additional information from Miss G. Eloise Schryock.
Alarick Schroeck's name is among those listed for the First Crusade 1096-1099. It is believied that the von Schriecks of Bois-le-Duc were descended from him. The von Schrieck ancesters originally came from 'sHertogenbosch (Bois-le-Duc) in the Duchy of Brabant, Holland.
Wilhlelm Friedrick, Baron Van Schrieck, 1545-1583 (died in Bois-le Duc)
Karl Friedrick, Baron, 1580-1630 (died in Bois-le Duc)
Jarick Hans, 1610-1685 (migrated to the Palatinate and died in Hanover) Friedrich von Schrieck, 1668-1734 (born and died in Hanover).
Thus was Friedrick von Schrieck a descendant of a line of feudal barons,.
The name was originally spelled Schreeck, followed by Van Schrieck, and von Schrieck, and in Holland the name has continued as Van der Schrieck. In America it has been spelled with many variations: Schreyack, Shriock, Schryock, Screyock, Schroyock, Sriock, etc., until the final form of SHRYOCK. (It is believed that this family had no connection with those of the name Schrack or Schrock.)
_______________________________
From the daily papers of October 24-25, 1944:
"British troops fought into the streets of the key Dutch road center "of 'sHertogenbosch tonight. " 'sHertogenbosch One of Europe's Oldest and Most Romantic Towns (By" The Associated Press") 'sHertogenbosch is one of Europe's oldest and most romanic towns as well as one of southern Holland's most successful commercial cities. The town derives its name from Duke Godfrey of Brabant, who granted it municipal priveleges in 1184. The name literally means 'the Duke's Woods' - Hertog being the Dutch word for duke and Bosch the word for woods. It often appears on maps in the French variant, Bois-le-Duc. The apostrophe 's' prefix to the name is the Dutch form of the possessive case. The name of the town is pronounced 'Ser-Togggaen-Bos' with the 'g' gargled. 'sHertogenbosch is the capital of North Brabant Province and has a population of about 41.000. It is located at the confluence of the Dommel and Aa Rivers. It is connected with the Maas, three miles to the north, by the canalized River Dieze. Rail and motor routes fan out from the town. It was considered impregnable during the Middle Ages because of marshes surrounding it until Stadtholder Frederic Henry took it by storm in 1629.
In May 1940 it lay directly in the path of the German forces advancing from Kleve, Germany. A German armored division moved through the town and reached the Moerdyk bridge across Hollandsch Diep, 30 miles to the west, on May 12. The bridge had been occupied by German troops in Netherlands' uniforms."
