Michael Broyles was the son of Hans Jacob Broyles and Mary or Marie Catherine Fleishman, immigrants from Württemberg, Germany. In 1764, Michael married Elizabeth Klug, daughter of George Samuel Klug, an immigrant from German Prussia, and Susannah Castler, whose ancestors also came from Germany. Michael and Elizabeth had ten children (in order of birth): Aaron, Susanna, Samuel, Michael Jr., Andrew, John, Elizabeth, Ann, Lydia, and William Simon.

****************
All traces of the Broyles burial ground are long gone. Two written sources, "History of Washington County" by Gene Cox, and Washington County TN Tombstone Inscriptions Vol 2 by Charles M. Bennett both contain entries stating such. I personally have searched for it, and talked to several locals, as well. It seems that this burial ground has been lost to time. Also, no list has been found to completely & positively confirm any name listed as being interred there.
