    Agatha Doerksen, daughter of David and Maria Doerksen, married Johann Peters (b. 1 Jan 1750).

    While it is known that the wife of Johann Peters in 1801 was named Agatha, and that her age was right for being Agatha Doerksen, there is no explanation for why it is believed that Johann's wife was Agatha Doerksen.

    Note: ... Johann Peters [1750-1834] may have lived at Neunhuben, Danzig, at some time. Eliesabeth Töws was likely the daughter of Jacob Töws, Neunhuben 1776: 1 dau., no wife listed (Danzig Gem.).
    In the 1795 list I have assumed that the name of the senior [1750-1834] Johann Peters' wife is misstated as Helena instead of Agatha. The reference to a Johann Peters who married Helena Neufeld (b. 1771) appears to refer to Johann Peters junior [1777-1837].'
