DeAnn, I have a Fred Knaack in my husband's line, but he died in Deerfield, Il. My Fred was also born in Germany. I don't have Fred's dates, but comparing to some of his brothers, the death year matches, or at least probably pretty close. I have no other info on my Fred. Hey, who knows.

Grandfather of Stephanie Knaack
Thank you for responding to my inquiry. I want to understand a little more clearly how you're related to Albert Knaack. Would you be kind enough to tell me your father's name, your grandfather's name your great-grandfather's name? This will help me tie it all together - if possible.
|
My grandfathers name is Albert Knaack. My fathers name is David. My greatgrandfather was John. And my great great grandfathers name is Jesse.
|
I had an uncle named Albert Knaack a cousin named David. My dad's name was Fred my mom's name was Josephine. Does your grandpa have a lot of sisters anad a couple of brothers? If he does then we are probably cousins the stories the stories I could tell the pictures I could send.
|
my grandpa had brothers and sisters and my dad, David had many sisters and few brothers. If this is what you are looking for, please let me know. I also had a great grandma named Josephine. I just don't know what her maiden name is

I have been reading the responses back and forth. Question: What state are the KNAACKs you speak of from? I am researching KNAACKs as well. Mine are mostly in northern Illinois, but there are some that are stragglers - Iowa, Washington, etc. Possibly there are some connections.

the Knaacks that I am talking about are in Chicago. But most of my family is in illinois, south dakota, or minnesota. I hope that helps

Leona - If your Uncle Albert lived near Bartlett, IL we could have info that we MUST exchange. My husband's Grandpa Albert lived on a farm across the road from his brother Frank. I believe they also had brothers named Fritz (Fred?) and Wilhelm. Their father Christian lived near Barrington - his name is Knaack on the ship's manifest, but Knaak on the census of 1920. Hope we have some info that matches. Dolores
