Valentin Karl was baptized on 13 November 1839 in Wurzweiler.8
His godfather was Valentine Renz from Wurzweiler.8
Valentin Karl immigrated on 27 May 1850 to New York.1 Valentine was listed on 27 August 1850 as a household member living with Johann Georg Ludwig Karl on the 1850 US Federal Census of Buck Township, Tuscarawas County, Ohio, enumerated 27 August 1850. John was Elizabeth's husband and father of everyone else in the household: John Jr., Peter, Ann M. [Maria], Jacob, Valentine, Elizabeth, Catharine, and Phillip. They lived at dwelling number 451. Also living with the family was an 18-year-old girl named Barbara Renson; her surname is suspiciously close to the maiden name of John's wife, Elisabeth Rentz, and she might be Elisabeth's younger sister.9 Valentine Caroll was listed on 10 July 1860 as a household member living with John Caroll on the 1860 US Federal Census of Tuscarawas County (Sugar Creek Township), Ohio, enumerated 10 July 1860. John was Elizabeth's husband and the father of Peter, Jacob, Valentine, Elizabeth, Catharine, and Philip. Their oldest brother John Jr. must have been working elsewhere, and Ann Maria had either married or died. They lived at dwelling number 646. John's real estate was valued at $800, and his personal estate was worth $100.10,11,12 On 5 November 1865, when Valentin was 25 years, 11 months and 25 days old, his father, Johann Georg Ludwig Karl, died at the age of 62.3,13,14 On 3 January 1872 Valentin Karl (along with John J. Karl, Jacob Karl, Jonathan Auman and Elisabeth) received part of Johann Georg Ludwig Karl's estate. The handwritten document from Peter is very difficult to decipher with great accuracy, but it appears that Johann's widow Elisabeth received $573.06, his son John Karl perhaps as much as $175, his son Valentine about $200, and his son Jacob nearly $8. Peter paid himself $47.68 as "Commission to Administrator". Jonathan Auman, the father-in-law of Johann's son Peter, received $42. The money seems to have come mostly from the sale of land, although which plot of land in particular is not known at this time.15 Valentine was a farmer.16 Valentine was listed as a brother in the 1880 US Federal Census, enumerated 1 June 1880, in the household of Peter Karl and Sarah, of Tuscarawas County (Dover Township), Ohio. They lived at an area of Dover Township populated by farmers, although a 29-year-old school teacher named Frederic lived three households away in the home of his father, which was large and/or wealthy enough to have a servant..16,17,18 On 20 March 1888 Valentin died in Canal Dover, Ohio, at age 48 of lung disease.3,19,20 He was buried in St. Joseph's Catholic Cemetery, which is located in Dover, Ohio.20 |
