Hello Sue, There was a Elizabeth Fiess (Feese) born to David and Elizabeth on 6/11/1808 in Union County it Early Pennsylvania Births 1675-1875 compiled by Charles A. Fisher. On 6/30/1852 John G. Feese married Lydia Swartzlander, New Berlin, PA by Rev. A. B Casper. In the 3 books that I have and after a quick look through I did not find any Brilhart name.
