I have some info on Knack that came from Germany. I am not sure if they are connected but the info I have is as follows. Johann Knack b. 1809 Krakko married Dorothy Schwartz. They had a son (maybe more) Friedrich who married Louisa Brandt. Also a son Henry who married Maria Gillow. Fred and Louisa had a daughter (maybe more children) Anna who married Harry Oberacher. Henry and Maria had 9 Children, Johann August Wilhelm, Charles, Lewis, Henry, Christena, Maria, Elizabeth, Lovina and Emil. Not sure if this helps, but let me know!

Thanks for your response on Janurary 30th. I am sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I believe my August J. Knack came from Germany. He died in Detroit Michigan somewhere around 1912. He was married to a Bertha Wischnowski. Does any of that ring a bell with your family history. Thanks.
