Pauline C. Schoettler on October 25, 1898 at St. Paul’s Evangelical Church. He was buried in the Cave Hill Cemetery on October 11, 1944.
4.	Wilhelm Cornelius Jakob “William” Riehlmann - bom December 22, 1879 and baptized at St. Paul’s Church. In the 1910 census of Jefferson County, KY, he is living there with his wife, Laura A. Riehlmann and no children.
5.	Anna Maria Riehlmann - born in February 1882 in Louisville, KY, and was baptized on April 23, 1882 at St. Paul’s Church.
6.	Katharina Dorothea Riehlmann - bom July 1886 as found in her parents home in the 1900 Louisville census.
7.	Edward Jacob Riehlmann - bom in December 1889 as listed with his parents in the 1900 Louisville census. He was born on December 10, 1889 and baptized at St. Paul’s Church. He died on June 8, 1953 and is buried in the Cave Hill Cemetery.
C.	Heinrich “Henry” Riehlmann - baptized December 5, 1852 in
Winnweiler, Germany. At first we did not know what happened to this person. Then we remembered the newspaper obituary of Anna Maria Henecko Riehlmann where it said at the bottom “Louisville and Memphis Papers please copy.” We now know the family connection to Louisville, but who lived in Memphis?
After some research, we found a Henry H. Riehlmann that died in Memphis on May 5, 1889 at age 35 (1854), bom in Germany and resided “20 years” there. He was married to Dora M. (maiden name unknown) who was bom in 1858 according to relatives of her second husband, Joseph Zoz. By Riehlmann, Dora had John H. Riehlmann, bom April 30, 1884, and died in March 1975 in Memphis, TN. He married Alpha Styers who was born in Kentucky.
After Henry died, Dora married Joseph Zoz on November 25, 1890 in Memphis, and they had one child, Edna Zoz, who was born in 1891 in Memphis, TN. Joseph Zoz died there on August 22, 1900. We suspect that this Henry Riehlmann is the same person as bom in Germany in 1852 should anyone be connected to this family
Then we found an obituary in the New Orleans, LA, Daily Picayune newspaper issue of April 11 and 14, 1889. This obituary said “Henry H. Riehlmann,” aged 35 (1854), died at his residence in Memphis, TN, son-in-law of J. and M. W. Heinrich. This tells us that the Memphis Riehlmanns were in fact closely related to the New Orleans Riehlmanns. This Henry H. Riehlmann was a nephew of our George Riehlmann through George’s half-brother Johann Adam Riehlmann. The obituary also gives us Henry H. Riehlmann’s wife,
