The valuation experts were Pierre Danse and Denis Robinot, also sculptors and also resident on rue Meslé.

Henry Scheemakers' other creditors included Paul-Ambroise Slodtz (son of sculptor Sébastien Slodtz), sculpteur ordinaire du Roi, living on the rue du Vieux Louvre, who claimed "la moule de torse du Milon de Cretone et le corps en plastre dans ledit moule"; Denis Coulonjon sculpteur à Paris, living at the Cour du Grand Maitre de l'Arsenal, who claimed a terracotta of "Gloire composée de deux tetes de chérubins avec rayons"; Claude-Nicolas Lenoir, marchand de pierre à Conflans-Sainte-Honorine; Pierre Pouillet, tailleur de pierre; Noël Froment, chirurgien du Roi; and the landlord who claimed 200 livres rent for the year. Sons Pierre and Thomas Scheemakers, sculptors Henry Scheemakers' elder son Peter (III) Scheemaekers became known in Paris as sculptor Pierre Scheemackers (c.1728-1765). Pierre was admitted to the Academie de St Luc on 15 October 1755, exhibiting several items at the Salons of 1756, 1762 and 1764, and was later appointed Professeur at the Academy in January 1764, but died in Paris on 19 October 1765. Henry Scheemakers' younger son Thomas-Henry, known as Thomas Scheemakers (c.1740-1808) also became a sculptor, arriving in London by 1763 to work for his uncle (not his father, as hitherto mistakenly believed), sculptor Peter Scheemakers who was childless. Thomas took on his uncle's workshop in Vine Street when Peter retired to his native town of Antwerp where he died ten years later in 1781. Thomas had married in London in 1779 but also died childless, leaving an estate worth almost £3,500 and appointing as executors his wife and Joseph Nollekens the sculptor.
