Biography

: Elizabeth Frey^[1][2][3][4] was born in Roxborough, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.^[5]

ELizabeth Catherine Frey was born in 1717, the fourth of twelve children and the fourth of five daughters of Heinrich and Anna Levering Frey.

Alternate birth information: Elizabeth Frey((Barbara) was born in 1719 in Skippack, Montgomery, Pennsylvania.^[6][7],

Her birth year often seen as 1717 may be in error. The Moravian records give that year as the birth of her sister Amelia Elizabeth. Charles Burgess, HFFA historian, believes she was the youngest. I have wondered if they could have been twins.

On 18 August 1735, when she was in her later teens, she married Johannes Miller;Johannes Miller in Skippack^[8]

On 4 March 1743, Elizabeth Frey signed her father's deed to her brother Jacob, 4 Mar 1743. There is a statement dated 18 Aug 1735 whereby Johannes Muller acknowledge receipt of ten pounds from Jacob Fry as payment in full of any legacy. So they were married by that date.

On 17 Mar 1747, the Rev. Michael Schlatter baptized Elizabeth Miller and eight children at Dr. Miller's home. A child had died a few days previously.
