Johann Schoendorf
Born 1833; death not recorded
Johann Schoendorf was born in Bavaria about 1833. He is recorded as the father of Magdalena Schoendorf, who married Conrad Emrich at Far Rockaway in 1884 — and he appears in person on that marriage record, alongside an Eliz Quiss, where the bride's mother would be expected. This archive records his wife as Dorothee Woock. Which of the two women was Magdalena's mother is unresolved and both are kept.

What we still don't know
- [NOT FOUND, AND THE NEAR-MISS IS A COINCIDENCE] The New York death index holds 54 Schoendorf deaths plus variants, and no John of an age fitting a birth in 1833 — the Johns die at 29, 45, 79 (born 1862), one year and one hour. The closest row is Schoendorf, Nicholas, 66 y, 21 September 1899, Kings, no. 16294, implying 1833 exactly with the wrong given name. A right year with a wrong name is a coincidence, not a candidate, and nothing has been attached. Finding 161.
