Katherina "Kacha" was born in Schwarzwald, Kreis-Adelnau, Posen, Prussia of 25 September 1835 (verified by records in Germany).
Kreis Adelnau (Polish: Powiat odolanowski) was a county in the southern administrative district of Posen, in the Prussian province of Posen. It presently lies in the southern part of Polish region of Greater Poland Voivodeship. According to the 1900 census, it was the county of the German Reich with the highest proportion of native Polish speakers (90.0%).[1] Around 75% of the population voted for the Polish Party ("Polenpartei") in the 1907 and 1912 national elections.
Here is information written by a grandson, Charles Damp in 1980:
My grandmother, came to America after the death of her husband. Her son Carl came with her and for both of them America was the land of opportunity. They settled in the little lumber village of Stiles on the Oconto River in Oconto County, Wisconsin. Carl immediately found work in the local saw mill. This was during the late 19th century. After realizing a degree of security and some savings, they sent passage money for my mother and father (Caroline Trocha Damp and Robert Damp). Grandmother and my parents lived side by side in Stiles for some time.
There were 6 children born to Kacha: Caroline, Christine, Marie, Karl, Susie, and a son who died in Germany.
