family genealogy[edit]

This bit was tacked onto the front of the article, I guess by a descendant looking into family genealogy.

"Joseph Schenck (on the right) was a very talented and light hearted pianist from a large poor very musical immigrant family. His grandfather was George Schenck and his grandmother was Barbara Gehringer of Heidelberg Germany. His mother Margret Graupner Schenck was called Maggie and his father Sebastian Schenck was remembered as being called Butch. His family are beginning to construct his correct genealogy. His mother and aunt were also once billed as the Gaupner Sisters, a singing and dancing act on Vaudeville."

If any of that info gets a place in the article, it needs to be a different place than by shoving Van out of the way in the lede. 67.243.29.174 (talk) 13:57, 28 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
