I discovered there is more than one Elizabeth Riffe using the same birthdate of 1767, Riffe-64 must have been born earlier than 1767 for Michael to have been her son born 1778. . Peter Riffe b. 1740, and Anna Maria Werblin Riffe b. 1745 are listed as parets for this profile, Riffe-8 and for Riffe-64. I am removing them as parents from Riffe-64 until proof is found. I do recommend that parents also be verified here.
thanks, Katherine. I have no further info on either individual.

Riffe-176 and Riffe-8 appear to represent the same person because: Birthdate and father are the same.
Please change the Last Name at birth to Riffe

Variations of spelling was added to the Other Last name field as per the Wikitree guidelines https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Name_Fields#Last_Name_at_Birth
