Notes - Caroline's parents are unknown at this time. She was born on October 22, 1834 in Gaisbuehl, Wuerttemberg, Germany.
According to the Wuerttemberg, Germany Emigration Index, Caroline applied for emigration to the United States in March, 1858. She applied in the district of Backnang.
The passenger list shows Caroline leaving Le Havre, France on the Asa Eldridge. She arrived in New York, New York on May 19, 1858. Traveling in steerage, she was accompanied by 15 year old Gottlieb Eisenmann, who was probably her brother or cousin. The next name on the passenger list is a girl, "Joh. Kronmuller." Her name was probably Johanna. It looks like she was 11 years old. Kronmueller is the maiden name of Caroline's future mother-in-law. It's possible, but not certain, that Johanna was traveling with Caroline and Gottlieb. It's also possible that Caroline met Johanna on the voyage. Maybe she met her future husband, David Obenland, because of a friendship struck up with Johanna while on the voyage to the United States.
However they met, Caroline and David were married on August 13, 1859 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The wedding took place in Saint Michael's and Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church. The couple had six children: Catherine, born April 29,1860; an infant who was born and died on June 18, 1863; Mary C. born May 15, 1865; Caroline, born May 6, 1867; George, born December 21, 1868; and David Jr., born in September, 1873.
The Federal Censuses show that Caroline and her husband lived all of their married life in Gloucester County, New Jersey. David was a farmer, while Caroline took care of the home and family.
Caroline passed away on July 24, 1896 in East Greenwich, Gloucester County, New Jersey. She was buried on July 27, 1896 in Eglington Cemetery.
