Hi Schnecks,
Left coast branch of Schnecks is centered in San Jose with extensions in Portland (son Mike, father of 6 Schneck boys) and in L.A. (son Pete, father of twins, including son and daughter)(16 grandkids total). My grandfather Schneck (Jewish) came from Prussia maybe around 1880, bypassed Schnecksville and headed for San Francisco in time for the 1909 earthquake which my father remembered. Any info would be of interest.
