Arthur's family came from William Hartwell, an English immigrant, who appeared in Concord in 1636.
Mary's mother's family came from Nicholas Knapp, an English immigrant, who arrived in 1630.
Mary's paternal grandmother was a Dutcher. The original immigrant was from Holland. The colonists called the Dutch
"de Duytscher" meaning "the Dutchman" from which the Dutcher name evolved.
Mary's great-grandfather was Charles Kadel, a German immigrant, who arrived in the 1850s. His Father was Christoph Kadel. Christoph was christened 13 June, 1787 in Reichenbach, Landstuhl, Pfalz, Bayern. Christoph married Margarita Gaberstich 12 Aug 1814 in Reichenbach..
This is a listing of what we know about the Kadel immigrants to the United States. There are many family lines.
Unknown1, Unknown2 etc. is our way of identifying the different lines.
