General Notes: Husband - [Father] Koch

---

He 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, and it is worthy of notice that the old family mill property was sold in 1891, to the government, for 276,000 marks, about $70,000, and that the vast water power was then utilized for the electric light plants of Stuttgart and Cannstadt.
