History: Sheridans married German princes?

I have been told that the fmaous historical Philadelphia family the Sheridans, who manufactured furniture, had married into a German princely family? I have been unable, however, to find any evidence for this. Does anyone know if this is true and what the accurate history is behind it?

    Could be. Royalty used to be a dime a dozen. There were so many "princely families" floating around Europe, you couldn't spit without hitting one. Germany used to be made up of many smaller kingdoms so there were lots of royals.
