Kinkel visited the United States to raise funds for a "German National Loan" that was to fund revolutionary activities in Germany. Although he was enthusiastically received, and met with President [[Millard Fillmore]], he raised very little money.

Returning to London in 1853, he taught German and public speaking for women, and lectured on [[German literature]], art, and the history of culture.  In 1858, he founded the German paper, ''Hermann''. Johanna Kinkel lost her life in late 1858 when she fell or threw herself out of a window.<ref>{{Cite AmCyc|wstitle=Kinkel, Johann Gottfried}}</ref> In 1860, Kinkel married Minna Emilia Ida Werner, a [[Königsberg]]er who was living in London.
