Research Notes:
name given as Anna Maria "Eva" DRACH in LDS Ancestral File, but incorrect. There are many references to her being the daughter of Rudolph DRACH of Bucks County, but Anna Maria DRACH was not born until 1750, and married someone else. [Ref: June Jones 12/9/2000]

Rudolph Drach died in 1771, sons Henry and Adam, daughters Maria (m. John Keller), Margaret (m. Jacob Allours), Susanna (m. George Sipel), and Anna Marie (m. ___ Barndt); thus no match with this Anna Marie [Ref: Bowsher DrachCont2]

claim that Anna Maria is a sister of Rudolph Drach also incorrect [Ref: June Jones 12/7/2002]

mentioned in Blacker Family History, a Virginia family, in a reference booklet at the Allen County Library in Ft Wayne, IN. This showed a Blacker-Bowsher relationship and listed three early generations of Matilda Bowsher Orrison, including identification of the wife of Daniel Boucher as Eva Drach [Ref: Bowsher Boucher-Drach]

possibly Anna Maria DROG/TROG, born 1729, daughter of Dewalt DROG/TROG, who died shortly after arriving in Oley Township, Berks Co, PA, in 1736, leaving 5 minor children who were "bound out" since they were orphans. [Ref: June Jones 12/9/2000]

1788: Anna Maria Dracht, immigrant of c1748, conjectured to be wife of Daniel Baucher, sister of Rudolf Dracht, requested, through power of an attorney, the surrender of their property through the payment of a tithe. Their propety was, however, not surrendered, but confiscated, according to the Emigration Edict of the Electoral Palatinate [Ref: Bowsher AnnaMariaDracht]
