Peter was born 11 Nov 1749, Alsace, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany and first settled in Northampton, PA before moving to Western Pennslyvania after the Revolutionary War. Both he and two of his brothers are active soldiers. His grave is near his farm in the Heilman Valley. His sons donated the land for the church and cemetery in the early 1800’s or possibly Peter did so. The current church building was built in 1879 and I will show that tomorrow.
