Note: Johann Henrich/Henry Creager, son of Conrad Creager and Anna Marie "Mary" Edar (Eadar), was born 14 July 1767 in Frederick County, Maryland. He married Susannah Wolf in Frederick County, Maryland. Henry sold his property consisting of more than 340 acres, and then he and his family removed to Montgomery County, Ohio in 1810. Here he acquired large amount of land in Washington Township between the Great Miami River and the Little Miami River. The Creager family were very active participants in the establishment of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Montgomery County. This church was known as David's Church. Here they remained their entire lives with Susanna dying in 1837 and Henry following 7 hears later in 1844. They were originally buried on a section of their farm known as the Creager Family Cemetery or Burial Grounds, and later reinterred at the David's Church Cemetery across the road. In his manuscript of December, 1986, William A. Creager, Jr. states that he visited their grave site on which stood the partially readable gravestone for Henry and Anna Marie.
