1874 Death Record for Johann Abraham Knecht
Another Johann Abraham Knecht! The one I'm trying to find was born in 1797 and married Anna Catharina Kratz in 1819. His father was named Joann Abraham Knecht and so was his son. Could this be "my" Johann Abraham Knecht, born in 1797? https://dfg-viewer.de/show?id=9&tx_dlf%5Bid%5D=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.landesarchiv-nrw.de%2Fdigitalisate%2FAbt_Rheinland%2FPA_2104%2F%7E048%2F04821%2Fmets.xml&tx_dlf%5Bpage%5D=29

This is the death record for Johann Abraham Knecht who died on 22 January 1874 in Scheuer at an age of 76 years. He was born in Höhscheid as son of a couple the notifiers didn't know the names of. He was a widower of Maria Christina Kratz.
So it seems to be your Johann Abraham Knecht, although there is a slight difference in the name of his (deceased) spouse.

Yes, this is my guy: age is right, birthplace is right. I will look up his wife's death date to confirm he was a widower in 1874. And I will have to research "Scheuer" as I'm not familiar with that place.
Thank you @Ulrich Neitzel

Scheuer is a few miles west of Solingen, see map below. It seems not to have an entry in Meyers.

Thank you @Ulrich Neitzel - I could not find it in Meyers either. However, your map confirms what I found here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheuer_(Solingen)
