Three sons were born to Heinz Steinitz and Dr. Ruth Steinitz.

Christian Gottfried Schütz
Christian Gottfried Schütz married in Halle in 1778. His bride was Anna Henriette Danovius from Danzig. She, like him, was the child of a Protestant minister: she was a daughter of Ludwig Danovius (1711–1771) by his marriage to Anna Eleonora Gerschner. Of the various children born to the Schütz's marriage it is the historian Friedrich Karl Julius Schütz (1779–1844) whose footprints feature most prominently in surviving sources.
