Johan (*1821) and Johan (*1815) move to America
American line 02
this line I call
american A02. Also the descendents of this branch emigrated to Olmitz, Kansas, USA
in 1877. They may have travelled together on the same ship with the family of Johann
from Šumvald 40, respectively 133 of „Pastorate mill“ . Information about the
interconnection of this line with our tribe I got from Mark Gerald Schenk from
Coloredo. This generation of american Riedl, differs from the main line in the 7th
generation. Father of my grandfather Vendelín (*20.10.1819) had older brother Johann
(*31.12.1815).
The 8th generation - JOHANN was born 31.12.1815 in Šumvald No.40 and died
in the state of Kansas, the town Olmitz. Johann was twice married. With Klara Skopilova,
the second wife and their children they emigrated probably at the end of 1877 to
the USA, Olmitz, Kansas. The youngest son John, who is registered in birth record
in Šumvald is called in the USA John F. Riedel. I do not have a lot of information
about this branch, I just know the birth dates of children from the birth record in
Šumvald and data, that Mark sent me . Children of Johann and Klara:
Marie Riedel * 13.11.1865
Anna Riedel* 22.12.1868, + 31.1.1870
Franz Riedel* 29.1.1872
Johanna Riedel* 16.5.1875
Jan alias John F. Riedel, 7.6.1877, + 12.11.1954
Here
you will find the descendants of Johann
and here
Johann´s connection on the main tribe line. This line is actually the nearest one
to the main tribe line as for the descendants „in male tail“.
Johann was the cousin of my great-grandfather Franc Xaver. Here in this branch there
are a lot of my undisclosed who will be hopefully once searched.
The 9th generation - JAN se narodil in Šumvald and is the continuator
of the line American 02. John got married in America Josephina Maulerova and
they had seven children
Anna Marie W. Riedel * 2.2.1900, +31.7.1965
Hugo P. Riedel * 28.12.1901, +10.2.1955

The 10th generation - EDWARD born in Olmitz. He got married Charlotte
Schneider. And they had three daughters. Marry got married Bernard Richard Schenk,
the second one Marcella got married Leonard E. Maneth and the third one Carol
got married David Thomas. Mark Gerald Schenk is one of the five children of Marry
Josephine Riedel. Mark, personator of the 12th generation of descendants is my
great-cousin three times . As I do not have more information about the descendants
of Johann´s family I do not know whether there are some descendants „in male tail“ .
