(The Knoedlers were cousins married in Philadelphia in 1890.  They were both grandchildren of Johannes Bischoff (1788-1859).  This family was also, in turn, distantly related to our Bischoff family,  through Johann Daniel Bischoff (1756-1819).  They arrived in America, seperately, in the 1880's and were instrumental in bringing our family over as well, having sponsored the voyage of  at least one of Karl Gotthilf's sisters.
