There was also a daughter born 1858, because I am in touch with her great great grandson.

 I am not aware of another child born 1858. This would have been before his marriage to annie blazer. Don't know when Johann died but I'm still researching

The daughters name was Marie A Voigt born 1858 and I believe they got married in 1855

Johann voigt didn't arrive in America until 1856 so I doubt this is the same voigt family. And ny marriage  records indicate Johann ( john) and johanna (annie) married 6-10-1862
