Christian Small (Schmall)

  General Notes:

From stories handed down by Emma Porter Small, their daughter-in-law, there was not much love lost between Catherine and Christian Small (Schmoll). He was left behind in Cumberland, Maryland, after Catherine and her five children moved to McKeesport PA. Stories state that after their last child was born, John Henry Casper Small had red hair. Christian questioned the fact that no one in the family had red hair and felt that Catherine had been unfaithful to him.

Christian married Catherine Engle. (Catherine Engle was born on 25 Mar 1827 in Kassel Hessen, Germany, died on 12 Apr 1904 and was buried in Richland Cemetery, Dravosburg PA.)
