  Notes	The name also appears as "Umbland" or "Umblang," esp. in newspapers. He immigrated with his father to Texas in 1853. Family notes say that he was from "Freyburg, Hanover, Germany." Freiburg was part of Kehdingen in what is now Lower Saxony. "Hanover" refers to the Electorate and then (after 1814) the Kingdom of Hanover. His ancestors mostly derive from this region of Lower Saxony on the western bank of the Elbe river called the "Elbe-Weser triangle," especially the northern part of it. He and his older brother Heinrich are mentioned in the Handbook of Texas on-line as cabinet makers; he specialized in undertaking, and making coffins. They are recorded in the 1880 census as residing in Chappell Hill, Washington Co., Texas. His two oldest sons Jacob and Heinrich died of yellow fever in 1867. Both are also said to have served in the CSA. This family is all buried in the same cemetery in Chappell Hill, Texas, but dates from the bible differ from the cemetery as recorded on findagrave. [8]
