Nicholas possibly remarried to Maria from the Lehigh congregation.  Because the baptismal sponsors at Longswamp in 1800 are Johannes & Catherina Klein, it is probable that Nicholas (married to Magdalena) is their son.  The relationship of Nicholas (married to Maria, with children born 1802-1808) is less certain. The Anna Maria & Jacob Truckenmiller who sponsor the birth of Salome Klein are tangentially related to Nicholas Klein the son of Johan Peter Klein.  Anna Maria Truckenmiller was nee Vogele, a sister of [[Elizabetha Vogele]] who married Nicholas Klein's brother [[Johan Jacob Klein]].

Jacob Klein: 4 males <10, 1 male 16-25, 1 male 26-44, 1 female <10, 1 female 26-44. This fits the list of children for Johan Jacob Klein. There is an extra male 16-25, and the age for Elizabetha Vogele is off by a year.
Henry Klein: 1 male 16-26, 2 females <10, 1 female 16-26. No known relation fits these data.
These listing account for all the sons of Johannes Peter Klein except for the youngest, Johannes Klein, who should have been 26 in 1800. He could be one of the males living with his brothers.
