Jeff,
I have been trying to figure out the logistics of this family for some time, but near as I can put together this may be the Frederick Henry who wed Catherine Frantz and then had some children. He went hunting one day and the famous "Henry Massacre" cost him Catherine and a baby Margaret Elizabeth. Young Anna Margaret and Peter survived the massacre and were rescued by dad near Fort Pitt. Anna Margaret was able to ID the Indian who killed her mother and once he was captured, she "Dispatched" him with a shotgun. Frederick apparently remarried and had the children you mention. Anna Margaret grew up to be Anna Margaret Steiner, hubby's 5th gr grandmother.
