From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Korahites
     that portion of the Kohathites that descended from Korah. (1.)
     They were an important branch of the singers of the Kohathite
     division (2 Chr. 20:19). There are eleven psalms (42-49; 84; 85;
     87; 88) dedicated to the sons of Korah.
     


       (2.) Some of the sons of Korah also were "porters" of the
     temple (1 Chr. 9:17-19); one of them was over "things that were
     made in the pans" (31), i.e., the baking in pans for the
     meat-offering (Lev. 2:5).
