House of Stern

The Sterns of Telford originated as the German family of Stein who were servants of the House of Hanover when that great house took the throne of England in 1714. The family was given land in the County of Shropshire where they established themselves as magnates in the developing coal industry. Originally granted the title of baronet in 1714, the family sought to elevate itself by becoming modest investors in the East India Company in the 1730s and again by active membership within the company beginning in the 1760s. It was about this time that the Baronet of Stein changed the family name from Stein to Stern in the interest of appearing more English. It became tradition within the Stern family for auxiliary sons to join the company and seek their fortunes abroad, mostly in India. Stern men of note fought extensively in both the Anglo-Mysore Wars and Anglo-Maratha Wars of India on the side of the East India Company. This included Henry Stern's father Jarod Wilfred Stern and his brother Curtis Weldon Stern who both fought in the Second Anglo-Maratha War and upon their return significantly enriched the family with diamonds, gold and other metals from the Golconda region of the Deccan Plateau. Henry's father returned to India during the Third Anglo-Maratha War (1817-1818) and participated in the Battle of Mahidpur (21st December, 1817) in which he lost his life. Henry's uncle, Curtis Weldon Stern was called to London to receive honors bestowed by George, Prince of Wales during the Regency of 1811, wherein he was raised to full baron in his deceased brother's place.
