    Default Family History - looking for someone in Berks PA

    Hi All,

    I've been starting to do more Family History recently, and I've run into a dead end. I though I'd ask here, as we had a
    discussion several weeks ago about stories from our family history.

    Her name is Elizabeth Houck. She was married to John H. Dotterer. Her children's names are, Leanna, Amanda
    Rev. Abraham Houck Dotterer, John D.,James M., Maria, Sarah, Elizabeth, All last name Dotterer. I'm related through John D.

    She lived in Berks County PA and is buried in the Boyertown, Colebrookdale Twp., Berks Co., PA. Buried at Fairview Cemetery.

    Several sources say she was born in 1813-14 on Dec 26. My information shows 1814, other sources show 1813, and I found one that said 1808. She died in 1884, on September 8.

    I'd really like to find out about her parents and siblings.
    Any information or leads would be much appreciated, and if anybody has info or lives near the cemetery and could visit, that would be appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Emily
