Georgiana Randall in her book page 64 stating that Daniel Bracunier was married twice, once in 1800 and again on 28 May 1811 to a Barbara Rohrer. Also that the estate of Christian Rohrer on 14 June 1814 lists a daughter Barbara Bragonier. Barbara does not appear in the 1820 Hagerstown Maryland census giving the impression that she was no longer living.
