Notes

The tombstone has the German spelling [Reichard] of his name Richard.

Husband of Maria (Polly) Klopp. Father of Lewis, Isaac & John. By the time of estate distribution, Polly had remarried and was now Polly Eirich

Isaac Klopp was the eldest son (b. 21 Sep 1838). Adam Leiss was appointed guardian of Lewis & Isaac, and Reuben Hain was appointed for John. However, Adam Leiss refused for Isaac and so George Ruth was appointed for him. Reuben Hain later (1851) refused his guardianship of John, and Adam Leiss was appointed. John V.R. Evans later became Isaac's guardian. Isaac became of age in 1859 but as of 1861 his whereabouts were unknown.
