In 1793 a Elisabetha Katharina PFEIFFER and Johann Leonhard Frank proclaimed the intent of marrying. In the 1846 Reichelsheim Familienbuch only four children listed George (9 Jul 1800), Johann Georg (22 Jul 1806), Johann Heinrich (12 May 1807), and Johann Bastian (7 Oct 1813). This family is listed per that record. Three other children were moved to Johann Leonhard FRANCK and Elisabetha Catharina PFEIFFER's family. This family then only has one illegitimate child instead of three and the other has two.
