The 1897 Gothaisches Genealogisches Taschenbuch der Freiherrlichen
Häuser gives some more of her ancestry:
Edgar was the son of Frhr Rudolf b 5 feb 1792 d 12 apr 1868, Herr auf
Illesheim, by his wife Henriette Lambert b 20 dec 1800 d 16 mar 1860
(m. 11 jul 1827)
Rudolf was the second of three sons listed of Klemens Benno Frhr v
Oefele, Kgl Bayr GRat, b 16 sep 1746 d 6 feb 1825, by his wife Josepha
v Unertl b 20 aug 1763 d 15 jan 1818 (m. 22 apr 1783).
This edition gives Klothilde's birthday as 14 nov 1868.
