Your father, Ludwig Joseph Knapp, filed for a corrected birth certificate. On the original his last name was recorded as Knaps. It looks like the correction changed it to Knapp. The original was recorded in 1943, so it must have been a delayed filing. In 1943 his uncle, Paul Bartsch, filed an affidavit to prove his birth date. You can view the correction form on familysearch.org. You might also want to order a copy of his birth certificate to see if it has any information on his father.
Fritz is usually a nickname for Fredrick. Here's a possible match from the 1900 census. I can't find them in 1910.
