=== Life Sketch ===
Records of the Reformed Lutheran Churches of Oberndorf and Rockenhausen, Germany show the following.
1) Anna Elisabetha Wallacher, her siblings and parents were living in Oberndorf, Germany, where she and her siblings were baptized. Baptisms in these churches occur within days of birth.
2) Anna Elisabetha Wallacher was baptized 02 Jun 1719, Oberndorf, Germany, the daughter of Johan Bernhard Wallacher and Maria Margretha (Lamp) Wallacher.
3) Sometime before 1733, the family migrated to the nearby village of Rockenhausen. Elisabetha, living in Rockenhausen, was confirmed into their church on Easter, 1733, along with her future Husband Valentin Leonhard, son of Michol Leonhard.
It is not known exactly when Elisabetha and Valentin married, but surely before 1748. Her husband the emigrant Valentin Leonhardt had traveled from Rotterdam, Holland, on the ship Neptune, arriving in Philadelphia in 1746. Also, baptismal records from First Reformed Church in Philadelphia show that the first two children of Elizabeth Wallacher Leonard and her husband the emigrant Valentin Leonhardt were:
a) John Peter, son of Valentine Leonhardt and Elizabeth Wallacher, b. March 14, 1748, bapt. March 20, 1748. Sponsors: Peter Schmied, single, and Maria Eliz. Diehl, single.
b) Anna Barbara, daughter of Valentine Leonhard and Elizabeth Wallacher, b. October 16, 1749, bapt. October 29, 1749. Sponsors: Henry Bub and wife [probably Rub/Rupp].
Elisabetha Leonard and her family migrated to Rowan/Davidson Co, NC about 1750 where additional children were born: Michael, Valentine b 1751, Phillip, Jacob, Catharine, and Elizabeth b 1762
It has been written that Elisabetha died in 1788, in Davidson Co, NC.
