Calling all GB biographers....

How many of the current GB have been or are currently married?

How many of the GB have had children? <not in the alleged Teddy J sense>

This post on behalf of a concerned JW relative who thinks the GB may be somewhat 'cloistered'

Intrigued . . .

FIL - no surprises.

I've kept a pretty close watch on the history of the organization, and I'm pretty sure that Albert Schroeder has been the only one to have children. Pretty much all of them were married with the exception of Fred Franz.

So Albert Schroeder has at least one son Judah Ben Schroeder who is either in or has done law school sponsored by WTS and Mr Morris has two sons at Brooklyn HQ.

Once these boys are in their 50's they will have a strong claim fro GB status in their own right.

Anything to add anyone?

seems like the gb member who has two sons working at bethel just goes to show you that the blind are leading the blind and passing it on to their progeny.

Judah Ben is not sponsored by WT.

Also Guy and Penny Pierce have a family.

I only knew their son Mont: he may have brother(s) and/or sister(s).

Thanks ITS - whats your view on family accession to the GB?

There's no precedent I can think of but it would be interesting....(apart from Fred -> Raymond)

IS JB Schroeder at Brooklyn?

I don't think it would ever happen.

I think all the others around the GB are so ambitious, greedy and envious for position themselves (in the nicest 'theocratic' way possible, you understand!) that they would never let it happen.

IS JB Schroeder at Brooklyn?

No, he left a number of years ago, probably around 5-6 years ago now.
