She was born around 1792. Johann was a farmer. I believe Johann Könen was born in Welinghoven. I have a copy of Maria Catharina's marriage record which includes her parents. Do you want a copy of that document? Maria Catharina came to the USA in Nov 1857 with her son Hubert and his family. I believe she died in Wisconsin.
