I am looking for information about my great-great Grandparents, Albert and Elizabeth (Nabors) Knabe.
All I know is that Albert was born on September 15, 1848 to John and Elizabeth (Rusche) Knabe.
Elizabeth was born on March 2, 1853 to Henry and Joan (Hocks) Nabors. Albert eventually married Elizabeth Nabors/Washburn
on May 30, 1876 in Leopold, Mo. They had nine children: August, Anna, Mina, Margarette, Catherine, John, Elizabeth, Albert Jr., and Frank.
They moved to Muenster, Texas, in March of 1897. Elizabeth died in 1898, Albert in 1936.

I would like to know about my great-great (and beyond) Grandparents,
and any info surrounding this family.

Also, if you are related, I would love to hear from you!

If you have any info, please email me: llotto@email.com

Thank you!

Lori Otto

My name is Kelly Knabe. I am from New Jersey. I do not know if we are related but it seems that there is a stong possibility due to the rarity of our last name. My Family came here from Germany in the early 1900's. They lived in Youngstown,Ohio and New Jersey as far as I know. Goodluck on your search. There is not alot of information out there about Knabe's.

Sincerely,

Kelly Knabe

I'm from Muenster, Texas. My great grandfather was John Knabe. My aunt Mary has been working on a family history, I'll see if I can find out some more information for you. I'll try to find out her email address and see if she minds you having it. Maybe I can get some info on Albert and Elizabeth from my grandmother.

My brothers are Gerald, Richard, James, Harold, James and Gilbert, and one sister: Rosemary. we might be of some service in your research. A family tree was
started by thesicking family a fewyears ago. a copy of that report is available upon request. you can contact me or Linda Knabe
(surving spouse of Gilbert). Linda, Harold, and richard are the only ones who live in Muenster. I have to run. let me know if i can be of any service to you. Does anyone in
the family own a Knabe Piano? (Ohio Knabes)
If they do, they are quite valuable. The family tree traces to germany, and When I was
stationed there in the 70s. I was able to contact a few of them.

Leon,
do you have any info on an Anna Mary (Marie) Knabe d. Feb 1986 who married a Scotty Shroff? They were my grandparents. My grandfather died when my mother was a child so I don't know anything on him and my grandmother is buried in Alva, OK. My mother was born there and that is where my grandmother lived when I was a child. Do not know other the particulars. You can email me at iamagore@yahoo.com if you wish to.

Kelly, I saw your letter to Lori and am now wondering if you and I are related. My Knabe relatives came from Germany to Baltimore and Philly in the early 1800s. I am originally from Delaware (my husband is from Jersey!!) Would appreciate and enjoy hearing from you. jmatlick@flash.net

My GRANDFATHER was "Albert August Knabe", who married Elizabeth, and together they had 10 kids, one of which died in a car accident ('Rose'). My father "Andrew Frank Knabe", who was named after my grandmother's twin brother "Frank". 'I' of course was named after my gandfather.

What would you like to know...?

I have a somewhat of a detailed history of the family line.
