No I'm not aware of this.

I know she was a midwife and did search her name on a website after seeing WDYTYA this week with Robin Gibb who had a midwife in his family.

Could you point me in the right direction?

It would be interesting to look, but not sure I will pursue it as she is 'only ' a 2nd great aunt to my friend.

She is in the "Born in Sheffield" book and I have seen her referenced in another local history book but can't remember the name of it.
The name is misspelled as "Christina" quite often.  She is referenced as one of the first trained midwives in Sheffield and her pension amount is quoted in the books. 
I have been trying to get some pictures of her as I know she was involved in the opening of the Jessop Hospital but I think I need to go to the Sheffield Archives for that.  We do have a picture of someone we believe may be Christiana Eckhardt but wanted to clarify this.

Hi Daisy

Christiana is my Great Great Grandmother! on her daughter Catherine's side. If you could point me to any information regarding Christiana id be grateful.
Her Son Jacob was in Brixton Prison (1881 census)

Hi Mina

sorry for the very long delay in replying but I have only just seen your message on the rootschat site.
I tried sending you a personal message but it was unable to send saying your "in box was full".

I have some information about Christiana and the family tree which I could pass on to you if you send me a personal message I can organise that.
