They are listed as Hungarian German, married 12 years and Theresia had 5 children 4 of who were still living.... so there must have been others before Emma and Samuel

But in any case your post to Kuestenland is out of place, for Therese and the children posting to the Hungary board would be more appropo and to Austria, Vienna for Fred.
