  • Notes 
    • A genealogy provided by Paul Herzog (a Reifschneider-Herzog descendant) lists the mother of Friedrich Reifschneider as Maria Barbara Schmidt. A genealogy provided by Gene Lehmann lists the mother of Friedrich Reifschneider as Henrietta Wick, the second wife of Friedrich married in 1867. The 1857 Kukkus censis lists Henrietta Wick as the spouse in the household, although that is 3 years before the birth of Friedrich. We conclude that sometime after 1857 Henrietta died and sometime after that Johann Konrad married Maria Barbara. Somewhere in that time period Friedrich was born.

      As we have no other documentation, two possibilities exist:
      1) The family genealogy listed as the mother the woman who raised Friedrich. or
      2) The date of the marriage to Maria Barbara Schmidt is incorrect.

      Both possibilities are equally likely.

      The 1886 Kukkus Family List has Maria Barbara Schuetz as the step-mother of Johann Jost Reifschneider who was born 27 Oct 1857. Thus Maria Barbara would have to have married Johann Jost's father after that.
