Carl and his family spoke Low German. His parent were farmers. They were possibly Büdnerei with a small estate or several estates for their property. Due to the prevalence of the class system that was still in use in the German states in the 19th century it was highly frowned upon for people of one class to marry outside (up or down) a class. Carl's brother Ferdinand had met Johanna Buckow, who's family was in a lower caste since they were weavers. Due to this Carl and Ferdinand determined the only way Ferdinand and Johnanna could marry was if they left Germany and came to America.
Carl und seine Familie sprachen Niederdeutsch. Seine Eltern waren Bauern. Es kann sich um eine Büdnerei mit einem kleinen Nachlass oder um mehrere Grundstücke für ihr Eigentum handeln. Aufgrund der Verbreitung des Klassensystems, das im 19. Jahrhundert in den deutschen Bundesländern noch in Gebrauch war, war es für Menschen einer Klasse äußerst verpönt, außerhalb einer Klasse (nach oben oder unten) zu heiraten. Carls Bruder Ferdinand hatte Johanna Buckow kennengelernt, deren Familie sich seit ihrer Weberei in einer niedrigeren Kaste befand. Aus diesem Grund stellten Carl und Ferdinand fest, dass Ferdinand und Johnanna nur dann heiraten konnten, wenn sie Deutschland verließen und nach Amerika kamen.
