My gggrandfather Henry Knupp was born in Germany about 1836 and gggrandmother Margeat Shank about 1835. They show up on the United States 1870 census in the state of Ohio as a teamster. I don't know anything else about Knupp or Shank in Germany. Would anyone know how to find any information or know anything about these two families? 

My gggrandparents Henry and Margeat Shank Knupp came from Bavaria, Germany. 1870 U.S. census shows them in Monroe county, Ohio. They were were born approx. 1835-1836.
If someone can find anything about them before coming to U.S. let me know.

My ggrandparents came to United States in 1884 from the port Havre. They were from Germany, Their names were Ambrose and Tekla Rebholz, They had a baby with them, Karl and a daughter Zazilia?
Tekla's parents were John and Mary Ann Rapp Goetz. This was noted on Tekla's death certificate.
This is all I know about them.
On the U.S. 1920 census it notes that Carl (Karl) was born in Wurttemberg, Germany.
If anyone can find birth records for him in Germany please let me know..
