They had two children: 1 ) Julia Heiskell Krauth, born 21 October 1821, who became the wife of Rev. O. A. Kinsolving of Middleburg, VA, an Episcopal clergyman; and 2) Charles Porterfield Krauth, born in Martinsburg, VA. on 17 March 1823 ; Catherine died in January 1824, when her children were very young, so, in their early years, they were brought up by their maternal grandparents, Peter Henry and Susanna Heiskell.
