Elberfeld is quite close to Unterbarmen (part of Barmen) where Heinrich's daughter Martha was confirmed in 1881, so this Papenkuhl could be her father if still alive, or her brother or other relative.

Today these historic towns are better known as the city of Wuppertal.

From Wikipedia: Barmen is a former industrial metropolis of the region of Bergisches Land, Germany, which merged with four other towns in 1929 with the city of Wuppertal, North Rhine-Westphalia.

Barmen was the birthplace of Friedrich Engels and together with the neighbouring town of Elberfeld founded the first electric suspended monorail tramway system, the Schwebebahn floating tram. Barmen was a pioneering centre for both the early industrial revolution on the European mainland, and for the socialist movement and its theory.
