I wish I knew! I have Susanna Catherine BROUGHER/BRAUCHER b ca 1775, Berks Co., PA. The bondsman at her and Joseph LIKE's marriage was Johannes BROUGHER. I believe Johannes MAY have been her brother and that her parents MAY have been Jurg Michael BROUGHER/BRAUCHER and Anna Barbara FRIZIN or she MAY be the daughter of Christian BROUGHER/BRAUCHER and Christina FRIZIN.
In the 1810 census Lincoln Co., NC there is a George BROUGHER/BRAUGHER listed as 1 male (himself) btwn ages 16-25, 1 female (wife?) btwn ages 16-25 and 1 male under

Jacob and Susannah had 9 children, all born in Rowan Co., NC. After Susannah died Jacob took the kids and left for Indiana but he died along the way. One child was named Susannah. She was born 1794 and died betwn 1815-1821 in Clark Co., IN. George BETZ was appointed guardian of Jacob and Susannah's 4 youngest children; Susannah, Frederick, Valentine and Jacob.
NOTE: As Jacob died in KY in 1804 he can't be the Johannes BRAUCHER in the 1810 census of Rowan Co., NC but who was he and where did he disappear to?
Jacob BONACHER/PROUGHER/BROUGHER purchased land in Rowan Co., NC in 1760. Don't know who he is either!
