Explore our family’s stories—and help keep the memories alive.


Across oceans, wars, and seasons of loss, the Schmieder-Beck family forged a legacy of courage, faith, and quiet perseverance. What began in the Black Forest and continued through immigration to Western New York became the story of ordinary people meeting extraordinary trials with faith, hard work, and a deep sense of duty to family. This site collects the stories, photos, and documents that keep their legacy alive for future generations.
