Son of Dr. Nathan Knepfler and Leonore Morgenstern. First wife was Frances Morningstar, daughter of Ignatz Morningstar whose family came to USA from Hungary between 1848 and 1854.

*Children with Frances Morningstar: Ellen, Daniel Webster Knepfler and Emma G.

*He remarried 1 year after Emma's birth. With his second wife, Doris Davis, he had: Nathaniel, Fanny (Isadore Rose), Frederick, Lincoln, Lida, Amy, Thelka (Oscar Rice).

Nathaniel, Frederick, Lincoln, and Lida all end up in San Diego. Their death records are available but I am not able to find where they were buried.

*An aside: Children that descend from Joseph Knepfler and his first wife, Frances Morgenstern (Morningstar), are double Morgensterns. Children that descend from Joseph and his first wife, Doris Davis, still have Morningstar blood since Joseph's mother was also a Morningstar. DNA has proved this .... a descendant from Doris Davis and Joseph Knepfler has matched to the DNA of other Morningstar family members. Leonore was probably the sister of Ignatz.
