Johann Theodor Wendel Kleinsteuber 1804 - 1866

Theodor was the patriarch of the Actinolite Kleinsteubers, he was baptized at the St Augustinkirche in Gotha Germany and lived there until his death from cholera in 1866; seven of his children and his widow all immigrated between 1852 and 1868 to eastern Ontario on the edge of the inhospitable Canadian Shield about 50 miles north of Kingston, Ontario (and Lake Ontario).  One adult daughter remained in Germany and her descendants still live there today.  Theodor was a successful shoemaker in Gotha, Germany, and several of his sons reported their occupation as Shoemaker upon their arrival at the Castle Garden Immigration Centre in New York.

The following Descendant fan charts start with a 3 generations chart for Theodor, then a 5 generation chart for most of his children.  Click on the Download File for each name to open each fan chart in a new Window then use the back key to return.  Charts can be increased in size by holding the Ctrl key down and pressing the + button on your keyboard.
