From husband John M. Burkhardt's biography, History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon County, Illinois, by John Carroll Power, 1876:
He was married, Aug. 18, 1843, to Mary E. Nagle, who was born June 24, 1827, in Bavaria, Canton Bergzabern. She sailed Oct. 20, 1841, in the ship Oceana. The vessel was wrecked off the island of Jamaica, Dec. 3, 1841. The passengers were all saved, but lost their baggage. They were transferred to another vessel, and arrived at New Orleans Jan. 8, 1842, to find the city in holiday attire in honor of Gen. Jackson's victory over the British, Jan. 8, 1815. Her father died in St. Louis, while she was detained by shipwreck. She came on to Springfield, arriving in March, 1842, and joined her sister, Mrs. Catharine Lorch, then and now the wife of Charles Lorch.
Mr. and Mrs. Burkhardt had eleven children (see John M.'s listing).
