  Noted events in her life were:

1. Record in the Probate Court Miscellaneous Books in 1778 in Cocalico Twp., Lancaster, PA. 3 ELIZABETH BRIECHER and Richard Adams Executors of the last Will and Testament of Engle Brecher late of Cocalico township deceased Produced to the Court the Account of their Administration on the Estate of the said deceased duly passed before the Register whereby there appears a Balance in their Hands of £ 255..12..3 which Account the Court on Examination allows and Approves of and directs that the said Balance after deducting £ 1..4..0 the Expences of this Court, the remainder Amounting to £ 254..8..3 be paid and distributed agreeable to the last Will and Testament of the Testator.

2. Census in 1790 in Cocalico Twp., Lancaster, PA. 4 5 1 male over 16 = Peter
1 female over 16 = Peter's mother
Listed next to Peter is Martin Eicholtz. Henry Eicholtz was the executor of the will of Peter's father, Engel Buecher. They are near Richard Adams, son of the founder of Adamstown, so likely within the town. This suggests Peter is living on his deceased father Engel's property in Adamstown.
Peter wasn't married in 1790, so the female he is living with could be his mother, or perhaps a sister?.


Elizabeth married Johann Engel Buecher, son of Johannes Buecher and Elisabeth Catharina Hommel.1 (Johann Engel Buecher was born in Dec 1722 in Wahlbach, Siegen, Westphalia, Prussia, DEU 6 7 8 9, christened on 6 Dec 1722 in Burbach: Evangelische Kirchengemeinde, Siegen-Wittgenstein, Nordrhein-Westfalen, DEU,7 8 9 died in Mar 1778 in Adamstown, Lancaster, PA 2 10 11 and was buried in East Cocalico Twp.: Muddy Creek Church Cemetery, Lancaster, PA 10 11.)
