    Notes:

    "believe that Moses B Brubacher was the child of Susannah Brubacher and an unknown father (presumably named Jacob). In 1857 Susannah was 20 years old and unmarried. Unfortunately no other record seems to exist to prove this connection (likely because of the illegitimacy of Moses' birth) although in 1851 a Jacob Simon was living close to the Brubachers and was 3 years younger than Susannah."
