Notes: no occupations listed. Most of the neighboring families had someone born in Holland. "Johana" is probably Johanna Gertrude who married John Raimer. I'm pretty sure John is with his parents in 1860, so they weren't married yet. But it could be Johanna Josephina, whom I haven't yet found in America.

Naturalization October 9, 1860 Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States   3a
Event Note

Naturalization Record Index Cards
Francis Teknipe
Certificate 3570 US District Court, Cleveland
Arrival: June 1853
naturalized October 9, 1860
witness: John Preckel

note: There is a Francis Teknipe (Certif #3570) and a Bernhardt Te Kniepe (Certif #3581) naturalized on the same day in the same court. This makes me think they are these two men, brothers.
