REIFFEL Abraham; DEU>IN,USA; 1841-1896 I am looking for information on the REIFFEL surname. My father's mother's father was Abraham REIFFEL [b. 10 Jul 1841 in Germany], who emmigrated to the U.S. in abt 1860. Abraham's father was named "Peter REIFFEL", b. 29 Sep 1809 in Germany and d. 24 Jul 1886; Abraham's mother was "Mary BARBRA", b. 5 Apr 1814 and d. 28 Apr 1891. I am also aware that Abraham had two brothers (Martin and Jake) and one sister (Laura). At the time of his death (31 Mar 1896), Abraham was employed as a meat cutter at City Market in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. Abraham married Margaret KALB sometime before 1865 (unknown whether in Germany or the U.S.). Margaret was b. 6 May 1843 in Germany and her parents were Philipp & Margaretha KALB, who were born in Mörfelden (M"orfelden), Hessen, in 1800 and 1803, respectively. I would appreciate any help you can offer with further information on Abraham's birthplace and Abraham's/Margaret's ancestors. Please contact: Robert C. Kryter, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, U.S.A.
