Note: if the birthdate is correct, then Elizabeth was not born in Pennsylvania, since the family did not arrive until after 1709.
Death
"Elizabeth Grafft, widow of Michael Grafft deceased of Martick Township" signed her will on 16 September 1788. It was proved on 19 March 1790. She named:
[4]
Her son-in-law John Miller and daughter Fronica.
Her "six children," whom she didn't name.
She stated that her son Christian and daughter Elizabeth, wife of John Lyn, had already received their share.
Executor: Son-in-law John Miller.
Given that five of Elizabeth's children—John, Michael (died young), Anna, Jacob, and Elizabeth (died young)—had died by the time she wrote her will in 1788, the six children she mentioned must be Christian, Elizabeth, Barbara, Susannah, Mary, and Veronica.
