Sophia's first husband (Richard Kohler?) was a glassblower in Germany. As he was walking home from work one day, he froze to death. Shortly after that, Sophia moved to America.
She immigrated to the United States on ship Hermann from Bremen, Germany. The ship arrived in Baltimore, Maryland on 15 June 1887.
Two children traveled with her.
Stephan Richard Koller (Kohler)1883-1937
Titus Theodore Koller (Kohler) 1885-1930
Less than 4 months later, Sophia married Philip Wolf on 31 Oct 1887 in St Paul, Minnesota. They had 1 daughter, Marie Wolf (Wolfe) born 9 1/2 months later on 18 Aug 1888. Unfortunately Marie would never know her father, as Philip died 6 June 1888, 2 months before Marie was born. Their marriage only lasted a little over 7 months.
Sophia's time with her children was also cut short. She died 22 April 1891, when Marie was only 2 1/2.
After Sophia and Philip died, all 3 children went to live with Tobias and Mary Eller in St Paul Minnesota. [One of the witnesses of her marriage to Philip Wolf in 1887 was Tobias Eller]. Mary (Brachell) Eller may have been related to Sophia Kohler. Mary Eller, Stephan and Titus are all listed in some census records as having been born in Bohemia. Mary Wolf is listed as a niece of Tobia Eller in 1900 census. Stephan and Titus are listed as stepsons.
