Herman Knispel/Sophie Schuerch/Augusta Bell Chambers search
I am looking for more information about Herman Knispel.He married Sophie Schuerch on 10 oct 1905, and had six children, Robert, Ernest, John Bernard, Fritz and Henry Walter.
He was born on 6 apr 1866 in Breslan, Germany, now Poland.He died in 1939 in Redfield, SD.
He resided in Zell, SD and Macintosh, SD.His name is also spelled Nespal.
IN Redfield, he was a butcher.He spoke 2 or 3 languages and was the bandmaster in his town.
At some point he was involved with Augusta Bell Chambers (1862-1918).We have no record of his marriage with August Bell.Originally she was married to John McKee.Some have him listed as John McGee.
Augusta Bell and Herman had at least one child, Lura May Knispel. (1897-1986)
She married Adelbert Westlake Ballenger.
Herman's father is Gottfried Knispel (1823-?) and mother is Susanne Langner.
If anyone has any information about Herman's siblings, children, wives etc, I would appreciate any information.I am doing this for a friend, and she is very confused about her family links.
Thanks
Karen
