SCHMUHL in Fond du Lac County

I am looking for any info re SCHMUHL in Fond du Lac County.
In June of 1863 a family named SCHMUHL arrived from Germany. There was the Father - Avid - the Mother - Helene - a son named Carl and his wife Friedke, and possibly their 6 month old son Wilhelm. There also was a son named Johann and a daughter named Jacobina.

I do not know where they settled upon coming to FDL Co (or if maybe they stopped somewhere else first)
Avid was born abt 1801 and Helene abt 1802 - Carl was born in 1829 and Johann was born in 1835 - so the parents were well along in age and the sons were not little children, but grown men.
I do not know where Carl and Friedke lived - they had 5 children: Minnie (m. Ferdinand Schwandt), Bertha (m. Albert Sell), Caroline (m. possibly Albert Weishoff??), Richard (m. Emma Schroeder born Beaver Dam) and Catherine (Katherine) (m. Gustave Endthoff)
I think Minnie and Ferdinand were around Ripon, WI as were Richard and Emma - I believe they had a small farm at one time in the Town of Metomen. Catherine and Gustave are buried in Fairwater Cemetery. Some of these could also have lived in Manchester, GL co and Markesan, and Richard had a son - William, who I have recently been told was born in Alto WI.
Johann m. Minnie Heible and they had a large family with Johann and Minnie and most of their children being buried in Fairwater Cemetery.
What I am looking for are the resting places for Avid and Helene and for Carl and Friedke and for the 6-month old Wilhelm (b Dec 1862) He may have died as an infant as there does not seem to be any knowledge of him beyond his arrival in US on June 23, 1863.
Would be happy to hear any info re these people
Thank you - David
