Knapheide, [infant]

Notes:

Buried:
A unnamed, stillborn daughter of "F. Knapheide," was buried in the cemetery located south of and next to the brick church dedicated in 1884 as the German Evangelical Immanuels Church of Holstein and know since 1957 as Immanuels United Church of Christ.

Died:

The placement of this stillborn daughter in this family is speculative and should be treated with caution. The transcription of her burial record identified her as the daughter of "F. Knapheide," but exactly who F. Knapheide was has not been confirmed. Other research reports that the Knapheide whose death was recorded in the archives of the church in Holstein, Missouri on 2 June 1877 was eight years of age, but there are no unidentified Knapheide children born approximately eight years prior to 1877 who are listed in the church baptismal records; this is hardly definitive proof that the daughter was not stillborn. This matter requires further research.
