Charles was born 16 Dec 1840 in Clear Spring, Washington Co., Maryland. He died 12 Feb 1894. He was buried in St. Paul's Lutheran Church Cemetery, Clear Spring, Washington Co., Maryland.

On the 1870 Census, there is a Louisa Knepper living with them, age 21, born in Ohio. The only candidate I would have for her based upon name and age is Charles' second cousin, Louisa Knepper (#494). However, she is believed to have been born in Pennsylvania.

Charles married #50310 Anne E..

Anne was born 6 Nov 1845 in Maryland. She died 11 Dec 1920. She was buried in St. Paul's Lutheran Church Cemetery, Clear Spring, Washington Co., Maryland.
