The parish register of Büdingen records the marriage of Johann Conrad Kahl and Anna Barbara Kilian on 10 March 1766.

Konrad Kahl, a farmer, his wife Anna Barbara, and son Georg Ludwig (age 2-weeks) are recorded on the 1767 census of Dobrinka in Household No. 78. They had settled there on 20 June 1767.

In 1796, Georg Ludwig Kahl moved from Dobrinka to Schwab.
