Not much is known of Jacob and his wife, Mary. Jacob's name first appeared in the Nelson County Tax of 1806. He also appeared in the 1807 and 1808 Taxes. In 1809 Jacob and Mary sold their land to their Brother-in-law, William Cook. Peter Briner, believed to be Jacob's brother, and Phillip Cook, William's father-in-law, were witnesses to the sale. Jacob and Mary then left the area. A person named Jacob Briner was taxed in 1809 in Hamilton County, Ohio. It is believed that Jacob may have died by about 1825 in Hamilton County, Ohio. A person named Mary Briner appears in the 1830 Cincinatti, Ohio, 8th Ward. The children shown for this couple are based upon the 1830 census.

Jacob married Mary Unknown in ABT. 1804. Mary was born in ABT. 1783. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

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]
