Peter and Catherine Briner (Breiner) were first documented at the baptism of their second son, Johannes Breiner [John], at the Zion Reformed Church of Hagrestown (Elizabethtown), MD in June of 1772. The sponsors for the baptism were Johannes and Catherina Stadler. It is believed that the family first entered Fayette County, PA in 1778. They lived there until they left the area in 1818 for Kentucky and Indiana where they lived the remainder of their lives. The families of Andrew and John remained behind in 1818 and lived on Peter's land.

Peter wrote his last will and testament on January 23, 1823 and died shortly thereafter. His will was probated on August 15, 1825.

Peter and Catherine's daughters Mary, Elizabeth and Catherine all lived to their mid-90's. The sons were not quite so lucky.

Peter married Catherine in ABT. 1769. Catherine was born in ABT. 1750. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
