Johan Velten Shultz the immigrant ancestor of the Shultz, Shults and Shoults families in Sevier County, Tennessee is Valentine Shultz. He was born before 1710 probably in northern Germany according to family tradition. No data has been found on his birthdate, birthplace or his parents, but the research is continuing. During his youth in Northern Germany, he learned the art of farming, and it continued to be his lifetime Occupation.

It is believed that Valentine Shultz was married in Germany circa 1728 to a woman named Elizabeth. No data on her maiden name and her parents has been found. Elizabeth was born circa 1711 probably in northern Germany.

Valentine Shultz, his wife Elizabeth, and his brother and sister—in—law,Hans Martin and Catharina Shultz, traveled to Rotterdam, Holland from northern Germany.

On this day, they arrived in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania according to the ship lists.

Shortly after their arrival, the group traveled to the "frontier" on the west side of Susquehanna River in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Today, this is in York County, Pennsylvania.
