General Notes: Husband - John Jacob Klingler
He spent his early days in Buttenhousen, Wurtemberg, Germany, and later took up his abode in Marbach, Wurtemberg, Germany, the poet Schiller's birthplace.
His father-in-law was engaged in the milling business, and his mill, situated at Marbach on the Neckar, consisted of twelve run of stone, and derived its water power from three immense dams. In 1817 the tide of emigration was directed towards the unsettled lands of Russia, to which the government gave possession and title after occupation for a number of years, and after making the improvements required by law. At this time Father Koch and family joined the emigrants to Russia, but died near Odessa during the voyage. His son-in-law, John Jacob Klingler, thus came into possession of the mill at Marbach, and operated the same for nineteen years, until 1836. The family removed to Hohen Neuffen, near by, in 1836, where they conducted one of the largest hotels in the town, and had in addition considerable suburban property. Here the family lived until May 23, 1844, when they embarked for America; the trip occupied thirty-six days. His son Frederick had preceded the family to the new world five years, and had settled in Philadelphia. He returned at this time to his native country for the purpose of conducting the family to their new home. On his way out he met his sister, Fredericka, by accident, at Havre-De-Grace, France, and assisted her in procuring a berth on a ship, as she was on her way to New York to join her husband. The family's first settlement was in Philadelphia, where they remained less than a year, afterwards removing to Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and purchasing a large tract of land situated in Manor township, later occupied by the works of the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company, of Ford City. There they lived six years following agriculture, and then removed to Butler, Pennsylvania. He died while on a visit to his native country. [HBC 1895, 738]
