It is not know for certain that Nicholas, and his wife Catharine (Snapp), are buried in this cemetery. However, the small cemetery lies on the farm where they lived until their deaths in the late 1700's. Nicholas purchased the 210-ac farm from Martin & Sybilla Roller in 1779. The farm remained in the possession of their sons Lawrence and John Sr until it was sold to Samuel Kern in 1808, the latter who is buried in the cemetery. If not actually buried in this small cemetery, then Nicholas and Catharine are certainly buried somewhere on the farm.
In addition to the three children linked below, their eldest daughter was Elizabeth, born ca. 1760, but for which little other information is known other than mention of her in the St. Paul - Strasburg church records.
