Notes for this person
MARTIN KNEPPEL.--An enterprising man and successful farmer in Sacramento County is Martin Kneppel, who was born near Hamburg, Germany, June 11, 1882, a son of Peter and Katherina (Zornig) Kneppel, who are still living in their old home in Hamburg. Their family of ten children are as follows: William lives in San Luis Obispo County. Peter died in that county in November, 1921. John lives at Clarksburg. Marcus, Herman, and Mrs. Annie Zimmer live in Germany. Martin is the subject of our review. Jacob lives at Point Pleasant; Mrs. Louise Dahlmeier, in Germany; and Henry, at Franklin.
Martin Kneppel was reared to the vocation of farming and received an excellent education in the local schools. From his twentieth to his twenty-second year he served in the German army, being attached to the 31st Regiment of Infantry. Having served the required time, he was honorably discharged and was free to go wherever he wished without hindrance from the government. He then concluded to cast in his lot with the land of the Stars and Stripes; so in 1904 he made the journey to Sacramento County, Cal., where for a time he was employed in a livery stable in Sacramento, and then began working on ranches in Point Pleasant.
In 1908, Mr. Kneppel made a trip back to his old home, remaining a year, and there he was married, on September 19, 1909, to Lina Raulien, who was born near Koenigsberg, Germany, a daughter of August and Johanna (Kasmir) Raulien. Her parents are both living, the father being a tanner. Of their six children, three are in California; Mrs. Kneppel, the third in order of birth, John and Mrs. Bertha Schmidtje.
Returning to Point Pleasant, Mr. Kneppel again took up ranching; and in 1911 he bought his present place of eighty acres, where he has since engaged in dairying and by close application and well-directed energy is making a success of the enterprise. He has two pumping plants, one for domestic use and the other for irrigating his fields of alfalfa. Aside from dairying, he is also engaged in raising poultry.
Mr. and Mrs. Kneppel have two children, Richard and Harry. In religious faith and affiliation, they are Lutherans; and in politics they are ardent Republicans.

| Title | Harders, Harder Familien ..aus Dithmarschen und aus Holstein |
| Description | In der Mitte dieser Datei steht ´"Harder Johann Harders´" ca 1647 in Marne, Schleswig-Holstein, Deutschland geboren Er starb am 17. September 1727 in Kannemoor im Kirchspiel Marne. Diese Datei enthält über 300 seiner Nachkommen. Andere aus dieser Familie haben ebenso große Nachkommenschaften. Nicht immer sind die Harders und/oder Harder in Holstein miteinander verwandt. Jacob Harders geboren 1490 war ein 48 er vor Eroberung das Landes Dithmarschen und nachgehends Ihro Köngil.Mayst. zu Dänemark,Norw. Fried.II bestellter erster Landvogt in Süderdithmarschen. Seine Tochter ist die Stammahnin für Peters und Boie in Eddelak in Dithmarschen. Anmerkungen Personen die vor 1920 nördlich der Elbe geboren wurden zählten zur lutherischen Religion, daher ist die Religionszugehörigkeit nur bei Abweichungen erwähnt. Hinweis: Oft findet man Familien der Region bis 1864 in dänischen Archiven [die Nationalität der Familien wird dann irreführenderweise als dänisch angegeben], weil die Region politisch der dänischen Krone unterstellt war. In meinen Arbeiten wird grundsätzlich „Deutschland“ angegeben. Abkürzungen verwende ich für Schleswig-Holstein [ SH ] und Deutschland [DE ] Niedersachsen [NS] u.a. Berichtigungen, Hinweise gerne unter peterzornig@chello.at. Harders, Harder families … from Dithmarschen and Holstein At the center of this file is “Harder Johann Harders” who was born in Marne, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany around 1647. He died on September 17, 1727, in Kannemoor in the Marne parish. This file contains more than 300 of his descendants. Others of the same family have equal numbers of descendants. Not all the Harders and/or Harder in Holstein are related to each other. Jacob Harders, born in 1490, was “one of the 48 before the conquest of Dithmarschen and afterwards the first landvogt in Süderdithmarschen under His Majesty, Friedrich II of Denmark”. His daughter is the main ancestor for the Peters family and the Boie family from Eddelak in Dithmarschen. Source: Church register entries, census data Notes: People who were born north of the Elbe before 1920 were Lutherans and thus their religion is only mentioned in case of deviation. Note: Many families that lived in the region before 1864 can be found in Danish archives [where the nationality of the families is misleadingly indicated as Danish], because the region was under the rule of the Danish crown. In my works I generally write “Germany”. I use abbreviations for Schleswig-Holstein [SH], Germany [DE], Lower Saxony [NS] and others. Please e-mail corrections and advice to peterzornig@chello.at.
