Notes for ELIZABETH SCHREIBER:
The 1850 census shows an Elizabeth Schreiber, age 13. I can find no further record of Elizabeth Schreiber. The will of Jacob Schreiber leaves bequests to his children, but the only Elizabeth mentioned is Elizabeth Light, who was born in 1856. The Elizabeth in question was born about 1837. The will of Simon Schreiber leaves bequests to 7 brothers and sisters, but an Elizabeth is not mentioned, only his younger sister, Lizzy Light Molter. Possibly the older Elizabeth Schreiber died young before the 1860 census and before the younger Elizabeth (Lizzy) was born in 1856.
