Does anyone researching these two families in Chicago have the name of Caroline or Doris Knaack in their line?

I don't know how far back you go but I am looking for a Caroline Knaack maried to Henry Witt. This is in the circa of 1830 and 1840. Any connection?

Surnames: Knaack Segebartt
I do!
I am searching for Carolyn Knaack who was born 1854 in Prussia, married Charles (Karl) Segebartt b 1852 Prussia married 6 Aug 1871 in Chicago ILL.

I show a Caroline Knaack b 1872 emigrating on the ship Allemania out of Hamburg on Jun 1872 so I doubt this is my girl, but nothing is certain in genealogy I have learned the hard way!

Do you recognize her? She had many many kids:

George
John
Frederick
Caroline
Charles
Elizabeth
Henry Matthews
Luie Arthur
Albert Augustus
Bertha Bernice
Emma F
Clarence
Clara Bell
Hulda Helen

From George to Henry Matthews were born in Kankakee ILL then the rest were born in Argonia KS. Dates starting from 1872 and ending 1896. (poor woman!).

Surnames: Hines, Cobey, Knack, Witt
In my family I have a Grace Nellie Hines b 1898 (Chicago,IL) who married a Knack sometime after 1920 and he died before the 1930 Census. Grace Hines Knack went on to marry John C. Witt and they resided in Chicago, Illinois. Does anyone know what the first name of Mr Knack could be?
