Gus, No, I don't think this is the right Catherine. The Catherine that was the daughter of Phillip and Margaret Fleischman Kreckel was born November 18, 1855. Now I know they married young back then but... I have this Catherine married to Joseph Lechner. The St. Marys & Benzinger Township Historical Society has a large file on the Kreckel name as I recall. They aren't open for business right now as they are moving but should be open later this month. The telephone number there is 834-6525 if it hasn't changed with the move.
