Expanding on my question of historical difference between *SCHULTZ versus
SHULTZ*
T am an English speaker in USA, age 90+ years.
Recently, our USA diplomat *George SHULTZ* died at age 100 years
We often see the spellings --- *SCHULZ, SCHULTZ, SHULZ, SHULTZ*.
Thus, my question of why *SCHxxx*x or *SHxxxx* ---
USA confusion or European significance.
(*Google search*, *unverified* )
Google Results for the origins of *SCHULTZ* and *SHULTZ* ---:
*Schulz* is a common German and Jewish-Ashkenazi family name in
Northern Germany
The German word *Schulz* originates from the local official known as
*Schulthelß* or
(Dorf-)*Schulz*(*e*), a local law enforcement officer like a police
officer, magistrate, bailiff or mayor.
And, so it goes,
