- Susan Mosher is believed to have been born in ca, 1758 - 59. Her date of death of 8 Dec 1838 is given in the First Presbyterian Church records, but the death date according to when it happened, viz., The Lancaster Examiner, Thursday Jan 17, 1839, says her DOB was Jan 9, 1839.
Jeremiah was married to Miss Susannah Thornburg at St. James Episcopal Church, Lancaster, PA, 23 July 1778. She was born ca. 1758 and died 1838-9. Her burial site is likely wherever the General is buried.
Susannah’s maiden name was most probably Thornbrough, although it was seen as Thornburg in later years. This original spelling is the spelling that her brother, Joseph Thornbrough, went by in his Lancaster County will of 1816 with codicil, 1819. (Will Book M, Vol. 1, p. 363). He died in 1820 and willed his sister his home and properties in Lancaster and at Washington that he purchased in 1805. This was sold by subsequent heirs, Joseph Mosher and Isabella Sample in March 1848, viz., Deed Book G, Vol. 7, p.175.
