Public claims explicitly assigned to this family line.

Emil Einstein was married to Karoline/Caroline Schweizer and they were parents of Auguste and Josephine.

Civil records described in the archive identify the household and Karoline's maiden surname. Auguste's 1965 death certificate in S-027 independently names her parents as Emil Einstein and Caroline Schweizer; the informant was her daughter, Mrs. Max Wortsman.

Confirmed
The Karoline Einstein in the Stuttgart Pragfriedhof index, born 7 November 1854 and died 11 December 1924, is Emil Einstein’s widow Karoline Schweizer.

The cemetery index and Stuttgart civil death entry agree exactly on name, birth date, death date, and city; the death entry additionally identifies her as née Schweizer and widow of merchant Emil Einstein.

Confirmed
The Caroline Einstein gravestone dated 1812–1882 is not Auguste’s mother Karoline Schweizer Einstein.

Chronology and identity conflict with the target Karoline; the prior conflation was explicitly rejected in the research dossier.

Rejected
Karoline Einstein, née Schweizer, widow of merchant Emil Einstein, was born 7 November 1854 in Altdorf bei Ettenheim and died 11 December 1924 in Stuttgart.

The Stuttgart civil death entry explicitly names Karoline as née Schweizer, widow of merchant Emil Einstein, and records her birth as 7 November 1854 at Altdorf bei Ettenheim; these identifiers distinguish her from the cemetery namesake candidates.
