Hi there, My name is Sam Schooth, I live in Qld, Australia. I know nothing about the Schooth Family, and when I read this post I thought to myself, perhaps through documents and errors, is it possible that Schoot is supposed to be Schooth or Schooth is supposed to be Schoot? I believe so. I grew up being told my lastname was German too. If you know anything please let me know. My email address is sscho25@eq.edu.au
