Note that his name is listed as “Rudolph Martin Chemnitz Kriewaldt.” Perhaps the name Rudolph never took — certainly his mother always called him Martin in her diaries — or he dropped the Rudolph because of anti-German sentiment during World War I.
Birth registration for Rudolph Martin Chemnitz Kriewaldt, more commonly-known as Martin Chemnitz Kriewaldt. Scan provided by his daughter, Helen Young.

Emma and Emil were engaged for about five years, and Emma taught school while waiting for Emil to finish his course of study at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. The marriage was witnessed by at least one of his fellow students, Herman Kellermann, who later married Emma’s sister Wilhelmina. The other witnesses were Adelbert Karstaedt and ? Hudtloff.
The marriage was conducted by Rev. Theodore Nickel, pastor of the Lutheran church in Shawano, Wisconsin. Like Emil, Theodore Nickel later “accepted a call” to serve as a minister in Australia.
Marriage registration, Emma Bertha Eberlein and Emil Paul Gerhard Kriewaldt, 1895.
