    • The confirmation of "Ernst Heinrich Knappheide [sic]" was recorded in the register of the German Evangelical Church on Charrette in Holstein, Missouri (known since 1957 as Immanuels United Church of Christ). His birth date in this register was given as 16 March 1856.

    Buried Holstein, Warren County, Missouri, USA Find all individuals with events at this location  [3, 10
    • According to the published death register of the deutsche evangelische Immanuels Kirche zu Holstein (German Evangelical Immanuels Church of Holstein), he was buried in the New Cemetery, which had been consecrated on 12 April 1916. It is located north of the present-day brick church, which was dedicated in 1884. Since 1957, the congregation has been known as Immanuels United Church of Christ.
           "Heinrich Ernst" Knapheide, as he was listed in the church death register, was identified as having been a member of the congregation since 1889. This is curious when compared to the record of his confirmation in this congregation in April 1871. In that document his name was recorded as "Ernst Heinrich Knappheide [sic]." The same order of given names was used to record his baptism in 1856.
           The reversal of the order of given names throughout the course of life seems to have been a common practice for many German-American members of the family as they moved across the boundary of the 19th and 20th century and settled into an English-speaking world.
