Notes:

She was the daughter of an early Swiss Mennonite family that had settled in the area (see notes for her father for more details). Her grandparents were killed by indians.

From Forerunners: A History or Genealogy of the Strickler Families Their Kith and Kin, by Harry M. Strickler (Harrisonburg, Virginia: 1925), p. 115:

David's widow married again -- Major Andrew Keyser of Revolutionary fame. After the Major's death she went to live with her daughter, Mrs. Abraham Heiston, on Dry Run, Page Co. and is buried there. She died July 13, 1845.

All the descendants of Joseph and David Strickler are also descendants of John Rhodes, the pioneer, who was massacred by the Indians.
