Hermann Knodt, Bernhard Koerner, and Otfried Praetorius, Hessisches Geschlechterbuch, Vol. 11 (Band 98) (Limburg an der Lahn: Starke Verlag, 1937), pp. 453–462, Steinhauser family history. Source copy provided by a family member to the researcher. Knodt roman numeral references shown in square brackets. All data strictly from pages 453–462 only. Compiled May 2026.
Compiler note: Knodt records Johannes Steinhauser (born 2 Dec 1808) and Klara Susanne Gruninger as childless (kinderlos). This is a compiler error confirmed by independent baptismal records and DNA evidence. Their son Johann Jakob Steinhauser (born 1836) emigrated to Australia. The Knodt research has not been independently evaluated by locating supporting records. A small number of records from the 1800s have been located to cross-check entries. Records for the 1700s are sparse on Ancestry, though records may be available through German repositories. The data is presented here in descendancy format, reformatted from Knodt’s original compilation.
