I am descended from Christ Knoll and Mary Shultz, both from Wurtemmberg Germany. My great grandmother was born on the boat as they immigrated. Initially they settled in Illinois, but most of them ended up in Groton, SD. I have a large amount of data on their progeny, thanks to a couple of family members that did extensive research on a related line and networked with everyone living at the time to fill in the blanks.

If anyone needs information on that family I can provided it. And of course, if anyone happens to have information on Christ and Mary's parents, I would be joyous to gain that information.

Christ was born about 1857 and Mary about 1868.
