I looked up these people in the 1790 census for Frederick and found most of them. No township is given but the alphabetical listings are in clumps, presumable geographical. The greatest clump where these people are found starts on page 10. I've also started looking them up in the Pipe Creek St Benjamin's (Kreider's) Lutheran Congregation for better versions of their names.

It's unclear which Peter Erb signed this agreement. The eldest was Hans Peter Erb, born 1712, who died in Frederick in 1801. He had a son, also born in Switzerland, born in 1738, but he died before his father, in 1774 in Silver Run. He had a son Peter 1763-1835.
