This page contains the Schönthaler
Kemmner side of the Schönthaler
Kling's family history. The Kling Heinz family lived in Büchenbronn and
Pforzheim, in Württemberg, Germany prior to the end of the 1900. Ana Maria
Kling married Ernst Schönthaler in Pforzheim,
Germany in 1918 and five years
later they arrived, as millions did, at Ellis Island. Ernst
Schönthaler was the son of Johann Friedrich Schönthaler and Christina
Fredericka Kemmner. Johann worked for Valentine @ Son's in Poughkeepsie, New
York during the 1880's and lived there with his first wife, Anna Ruscher.
After her death in 1888, and the death of 3 of their 4 children, during a
period of three months, it seems that Johann left New York, went back to
Germany, remarried and came back. But now, with the help of a researcher in
Germany we found out that he has a marriage date for Johann and Christina
Fredericka occurring in Poughkeepsie, New York. Two years later he and his new
wife, Friedericka Kemmner went back to Germany. They lived in Dürrn, Württemberg,
Germany. Johann died on August 25th, 1914 and Friedericka died on May
17, 1953 in Dürrn.
So
far we have found that Friedericka's real name was Christina Friedericka
Kemmner, the daughter of Michael Kemmner and Elisabetha Barbara Stickel from
Enzberg, Württemberg, Germany. The first Kemmner found in the church books
was Johann Michael Kemmner. He married Margaretha Schüz on February 9, 1792.
Johann Michael was the son of Andreas Kemmner and they were originally from Ötlingen,
and Württemberg, Germany. Margaretha was the daughter of Andreas Schüz
and Elisabeth Stoll, both from Enzberg. Andreas was born on July 8, 1741 and
was the son of Andreas, born before 1721. Elisabeth Stoll was the daughter of
Georg Stoll. In the last two years I have being working with this lines with
some new friends and we have being able to go back as early as mid 1500ªs.
Johann Schönthaler and Christina Friederika's only son returning to
America was Ernst. His wife Anna Maria Kling and his son Kurt Wilhelm returned
with him in 1923. They were passengers aboard the SS Munchen. They arrived on
September 10th, 1923. Also, during the last two months I found out that
Johann Friederich Schönthaler parents were Johann Christian and Johanna
Susana Giraud. Johann Christian Schönthaler was born on August 4, 1821 in
Ottenhausen, Württemberg, Germany and Johanna Susana was born on June 19,
1824 in Sengach, Württemberg, Germany. Her parents were from Groß Villars, Württemberg,
Germany.
