Biography
Youngest daughter of Jacob and third wife Catherine Bender Sierer. She married John Frederick Deck, son of Nicholas. There is a record in the Lancaster, Pennsylvania Mennonite Vital Records naming her as last and 13th child. This record states she married John Frederick. John might possibly be the person appointed as guardian after her petition for a guardian. There are ample references to the guardianship in anecdotal form, however no actually court document has been found.
- Fact: Also Known As Catherine Sierer
- Fact: Burial (27 October 1842) Christ Lutheran Church Cemetery, Stouchsburg, Marion Township, Berks, Pennsylvania, United States
