Christopher was born in 1843 too early for this chap to be his father?
If an obituary of  Me Ruhlund is online maybe it will have names of his family.

Birth year seems to vary between 1843/1844/1845/1848 on records !!!!!!!! We all know dates can vary.

You would think that they would know their ages.
I put ru**** in 1850 and found a Munda Rue 1810 ,born Germany with wife Jane 1817 born Maryland with children John C 1844 and Joseph 1847 and William S 1850.
This is the nearest that I can find a JC with that age,
I wonder if the father is related to immigration list chap that you found.

I wondered if  this marriage might tie in ?

No references in any of this to a link to Cornwall................

There is also a suggestion that Abel Ruhl was a half brother to Munde - Abel married Mary Emerick in Maryland.

Wonder if these are the same paremts as those of Munde Ruhl  ?

There is an entry for a birth Abel Rühl -  Birth Date 12 Nov 1820 - Baptism Date 15 Nov 1820
Maulbach, Hessen (Hesse), Deutschland (Germany) - parents - Peter Rühl - Mother Elizabetha Rühl

Interesting - looking at Muntis Ruhl on the 1870 census - living with the Hipkins family. A Joseph Ruhl married Amelia Hipkins 15 June 1840 Baltimore Maryland. Adeline could be a Ruhl sister who married a Hipkins

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F4JV-MWG

Adelheid Rühl -  birth/baptism 21 Oct 1813 - Schotten, Hessen (Hesse), Deutschland
Friedrich Rühl - Mother Elisabetha Rühl

This looks like Adeline/Adelheid with her children and her mother Ann E (born 1777) in 1850 Baltimore, ward 17, Baltimore, Maryland.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MD4Z-V1W

and in 1860 17th Ward Baltimore City, Baltimore, Maryland - again with her mother - could Christopher born 1816 be Munde    (name and birth date varying................... )

Thanks again for the information.
I noticed that the surname was Rule in one of the censuses,so I presume that must have how it sounded.
There doesn't seem to be a Cornish connection anywhere that I can see.
Late last night I turned the television on and the end credits came up for the film 'The Swimmer' with Burt Lancaster and Janice Rule was one of the actresses. What a coincidence. If I had turned on earlier I may have seen her.
