About 1809 or 1810 in Pennsylvania he married Catharine SCHMIDT (SMITH). There are indications that Catharine was probably born sometime after about 1775.
Michael died on March 28, 1820 in Franklin Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
Records of probate hearings held after his death clearly establish that Michael's widow, the mother of his daughter Catharine Michaele, had by 1839 remarried to Philip Brinker and was referenced during the later estate hearings as "Catherine Brinker".
