Our line of knobels lived in Champlin, MN in Hennepin Co. The farm they homesteaded is now located between Osseo & Brooklyn Center. I am trying to trace our line of knobels back to Schwanden, Glarus, Switzerland where they came from. Martin Knobel came over in 1862 or 63 with his son Martin & wife Magdalena. We believe Martin Sr. was widowed at sea. I don't know who he was married to. Can you help? Where was your line of Knobels located. Perhaps they are related at some level, coming from the same area in Schwanden. Thanks, Christian C Knobel

I have Knobels from Schwanden too. I don't think I can give you any information that will put you back to the next generation but I can tell you that if they are named "Knobel" and they came from Schwanden, then they are related somehow. Check the other rootweb sources. I know there is a man researching Swiss families from Glarus who settled in Minnesota. My line went to Otter Tail County. A "cousin" did some research on her Zimmermann line and because of that we were not only able to figure out our relationship but also get the family back to Switzerland. The Swiss keep a vital record on family genealogy. Because I took advantage of a "cousin's" research, I don't know the name of the record or how to get hold of it. However, I've been told that Glarus is now allowing the LDS church to microfilm this record. You might want to check some of the Swiss web-sites to see what they have. I am sure there is a Glarus web-site because I remember using it once upon a time.
Hopefully, with a bunch of us looking for a connection we can tie our Knobels together.
