  • Notes 
    • Veronica Clemens, "the youngest in family was born December 14th, 1853. She is married to August Stengel. They resided in Breslau for quite a few years. Some time ago it was noticed that her mental powers were beginning to give way, and in course of time it was deemed advisable by the doctor in attendance to have her placed in the asylum for safe keeping. She now is in the Hamilton asylum and there is very little hope of her ever being restored to her right mind. Her family consists of six children".
