Wife is Marie (Rareigh?). They emigrated to York County's Seven Valleys area, and were founding members of what became the Codorus Church of the Brethren near Loganville, PA. {Who is the Peter Brillhart who arrived with two sons each under age sixteen on 16 Sept 1736 at Philadelphia, the sons being Peter and John and the father's age being given as 39 - see "A Light in the Valley: A History of the Codorus Church of the Brethren," by William L. Gould, York, PA: The Maple Press, 1976, p. 117.} A brief history of York County is on the World Wide Web at http://www.york-county.org/about/history.htm
Could John relate to the family documented in this parish record in Germany? - shared by Dale Bricker (dbricker@cyburban.com)via email in 2002: "I've seen at least one baptismal record for a child of Peter and Ottilia Brillhardt in the Protestant parish book of Rothau, Alsace in the 1720s. It says that they came from Bern Canton, in Switzerland, but I am having a hard time tracking down that surname as one with a Swiss origin.
"'Jean Pierre Brillhard, fils de Pierre Brillhard le cordonier, natif du Canton de Berne en Suisse, demeurant =E0 Rothau et Odille Verly sa femme, et venu au monde vendredi le 29 Novembre 1726 =E0 8 heures du matin, a =E9t=E9 batis=E9 le dimanche suivant, 1 Decembre de le Advent dans l'=E9glise de Rothau.
"'Ses parains ont =E9t=E9 Christian Tepp demeurant =E0 Rothau et Didier Verly de Belmont, oncle de 'enfant. La maraine fut Mareleine Coly, femme de Jean Stemply le cordonnier suisse, demeurant a Rothau.'
"The person who wrote the record was French-speaking even though the people involved were German-speaking. So 'Jean Pierre' was really 'Hans Peter', for example. 'Cordonier' means shoe-maker. 'Parain' means godfather, 'marraine' means godmother."
Frances T. Allison reports that John and Marie also had John Brillhard (b. 1721 in Holland, m. 1744 Susanna Derdorf) and Samuel (b. 1724 in Holland, m. 1743 Esther Smidt). - based on Family Tree Maker disc 5, pedigree 3478 and disc 13, pedigree 375.

The name means simply 'son of Gerald' and may have its origins in Italy, with the medieval Gherardini family of Florence. They crossed Europe to settle in Wales and then came to Ireland in the 12th century."

Halfdan was ruler of southeastern Norway, and was called "The Black." He m. (1) Thora, dau. of Harald "Goldbeard", ruler of Sogn. His "seat" was at Stein in the district of Ringerike (in the eastern part of central Norway). http://www.medsca.org reports in 2002: Halvdan saga Svarte - This version of the saga is commonly known as «Heimskringla» and was written down by the scald Snorri Struluson of Iceland during the 1200's. Other versions of this story also exists, like those written down in the books known as «Fagrskinna», «Flateyjarboka» and «Ågrip», the last likely oldest and most accurate. The most significant difference between them, of any value today, is perhaps that Ågrip do not say anything about Halvdan's corps being divided, but merely state that his body was brought back to Stein and buried there. A theory we support as being the most likely.
HALVDAN FIGHTS WITH GANDALF AND SIGTRYGG. Halvdan was a year old when his father was killed, and his mother Åsa set off immediately with him westwards to Agder, and set herself there in the kingdom which her father Harald had possessed. Halvdan grew up there, and soon became stout and strong; and, by reason of his black hair, was called Halvdan the Black. When he was eighteen years old he took his kingdom in Agder, and went immediately to Vestfold, where he divided that kingdom, as before related, with his brother Olaf. The same autumn he went with an army to Vingulmark against King Gandalf. They had many battles, and sometimes one, sometimes the other gained the victory; but at last they agreed that Halvdan should have half of Vingulmark, as his father Gudrød had had it before. Then King Halvdan proceeded to Raumarike, and subdued it. King Sigtrygg, son of King Eystein, who then had his residence in Hedemark, and who had subdued Raumarike before, having heard of this, came out with his army against King Halvdan, and there was great battle, in which King Halvdan was victorious; and just as King Sigtrygg and his troops were turning about to fly, an arrow struck him under the left arm, and he fell dead. Halvdan then laid the whole of Raumarike under his power. King Eystein's second son, King Sigtrygg's brother, was also called Eystein, and was then king in Hedemark. As soon as Halvdan had returned to Vestfold, King Eystein went out with his army to Raumarike, and laid the whole country in subjection to him.
THE BATTLE BETWEEN HALVDAN AND EYSTEIN. When King Halvdan heard of these disturbances in Raumarike, he again gathered his army together; and went out against King Eystein. A battle took place between them, and Halvdan gained the victory, and Eystein fled up to Hedemark, pursued by Halvdan Another battle took place, in which Halvdan was again victorious; and Eystein fled northwards, up into the Dales to the herse Gudbrand. There he was strengthened with new people, and in winter he went towards Hedemark, and met Halvdan the Black upon a large island which lies in the Lake Mjøsa. There a great battle was fought, and many people on both sides were slain, but Halvdan won the victory. There fell Guthorm, the son of the herse Gudbrand, who was one of the finest men in the Uplands. Then Eystein fled north up the valley, and sent his relation Halvard Skalk to King Halvdan to beg for peace. On consideration of their relationship, King Halvdan gave King Eystein half of Hedemark which he and his relations had held before; but kept to himself Toten, and the district called Land. He likewise appropriated to himself Hadeland, and thus became a mighty king.
HALVDAN'S FIRST MARRIAGE. Halvdan the Black got a wife called Ragnhild (A), a daughter of Harald Gullskjegg (Goldbeard), who was a king in Sogn. They had a son, to whom Harald gave his own name; and the boy was brought up in Sogn, by his mother's father, King Harald. Now when this Harald had lived out his days nearly, and was become weak, having no son, he gave his dominions to his daughter's son Harald, and gave him his title of king; and he died soon after. The same winter his daughter Ragnhild died; and the following spring the young Harald fell sick and died at ten years of age. As soon as Halvdan the Black heard of his son's death, he took the road northwards to Sogn with a great force, and was well received. He claimed the heritage and dominion after his son; and no opposition being made, he took the whole kingdom. Earl Atle Mjove (the Slender), who was a friend of King Halvdan, came to him from Gaular; and the king set him over the Sogn district, to judge in the country according to the country's laws, and collect taxes upon the king's account. Thereafter King Halvdan proceeded to his kingdom in the Uplands.
Notes: (A) That Halvdan should have married two different Ragnhild's, by whom both gave birth to a son they named Harald, seem to us to be too much of a coincidence. We believe he only could have married one of them, probably the one of Ringerike, because he had the chieftain seat there. This is also where he is supposedly was mounded after drowning at Lake Rand. It is far from certain that Ragnhild was the name of Halvdan's wife. She can in fact have come from the farm Tingelstad at Gran in Hadeland, a theory supported by both fairytales and a huge burial mound present nearby the farm. This burial mound is known to be a Halvdan's mound, even though Heimskringla don't mention it. Nonetheless, this would in fact explain why Halvdan went over the ice of Lake Rand at Røykenvika, cause this is close to Tingelstad and well in the route between the Stein and Tingelstad farms. The mound present at Tingelstad, is though most likely a memorial mound.
HALVDAN'S STRIFE WITH GANDALF'S SONS. In autumn, King Halvdan proceeded to Vingulmark. One night when he was there in guest quarters, it happened that about midnight a man came to him who had been on the watch on horseback, and told him a war force was come near to the house. The king instantly got up, ordered his men to arm themselves, and went out of the house and drew them up in battle order. At the same moment, Gandalf's sons, Hysing and Helsing, made their appearance with a large army. There was a great battle; but Halvdan being overpowered by the numbers of people fled to the forest, leaving many of his men on this spot. His foster-father, Olver Spake (the Wise), fell here. The people now came in swarms to King Halvdan, and he advanced to seek Gandalf's sons. They met at Eid, near Lake Øyern, and fought there. Hysing and Helsing fell, and their brother Hake saved himself by flight. King Halvdan then took possession of the whole of Vingulmark, and Hake fled to Alfheimar.
HALVDAN'S MARRIAGE WITH SIGURD HJORT'S DAUGHTER. Sigurd Hjort was the name of a king in Ringerike, who was stouter and stronger than any other man, and his equal could not be seen for a handsome appearance. His father was Helge Kvasse (the Sharp); and his mother was Aslaug, a daughter of Sigurd Orm-i-Augo (the Snake-eyed), who again was a son of Ragnar Lodbrok (B). It is told of Sigurd that when he was only twelve years old he killed in single combat the berserk Hildebrand, and eleven others of his comrades; and many are the deeds of manhood told of him in a long saga about his feats. Sigurd had two children, one of whom was a daughter, called Ragnhild, then twenty years of age, and an excellent brisk girl. Her brother Guthorm was a youth. It is related in regard to Sigurd's death that he had a custom of riding out quite alone in the uninhabited forest to hunt the wild beasts that are hurtful to man, and he was always very eager at this sport. One day he rode out into the forest as usual, and when he had ridden a long way he came out at a piece of cleared land near to Hadeland. There the berserk Hake came against him with thirty men, and they fought. Sigurd Hjort fell there, after killing twelve of Hake's men; and Hake himself lost one hand, and had three other wounds. Then Hake and his men rode to Sigurd's house, where they took his daughter Ragnhild and her brother Guthorm, and carried them, with much property and valuable articles, home to Hadeland, where Hake had many great farms. He ordered a feast to be prepared, intending to hold his wedding with Ragnhild; but the time passed on account of his wounds, which healed slowly; and the berserk Hake of Hadeland had to keep his bed, on account of his wounds, all the autumn and beginning of winter. Now King Halvdan was in Hedemark at the Yule entertainments when he heard this news; and one morning early, when the king was dressed, he called to him Hårek Gand, and told him to go over to Hadeland, and bring him Ragnhild, Sigurd Hjort's daughter. Hårek got ready with a hundred men, and made his journey so that they came over the lake to Hake's house in the grey of the morning, and beset all the doors and stairs of the places where the house-servants slept. Then they broke into the sleeping-room where Hake slept, took Ragnhild, with her brother Guthorm, and all the goods that were there, and set fire to the house-servants' place, and burnt all the people in it. Then they covered over a magnificent waggon, placed Ragnhild and Guthorm in it, and drove down upon the ice. Hake got up and went after them a while; but when he came to the ice on the lake, he turned his sword-hilt to the ground and let himself fall upon the point, so that the sword went through him. He was buried under a mound on the banks of the lake. When King Halvdan, who was very quick of sight, saw the party returning over the frozen lake, and with a covered waggon, he knew that their errand was accomplished according to his desire. Thereupon he ordered the tables to be set out, and sent people all round in the neighbourhood to invite plenty of guests; and the same day there was a good feast which was also Halvdan's marriage-feast with Ragnhild, who became a great queen. Ragnhild's mother was Thyrne, a daughter of King Klakk-Harald of Jutland, and a (half?) sister of Thyra Danebod who was married to the Danish king, Gorm the Old, who then ruled over the Danish dominions.
Note: (B) Snorri is likely wrong! Ragnar Lodbrok could not have been the father of Sigurd the Snake-eyed, as he died in approximately 865 AD. Sigurd must have been born in about 780-790 AD to be a parent of Åslaug, who married Helge Kvasseand and were the parents of Sigurd Hjort. In fact we believe Sigurd the Snake-eyed must have been the son of Halvdan Milde and Mat-ille (the Gold-kind and Food-evil) and Liv Dagsdottir, but there is of course no proof of this.
RAGNHILD'S DREAM. Ragnhild, who was wise and intelligent, dreamt great dreams. She dreamt, for one, that she was standing out in her herb-garden, and she took a thorn out of her shift; but while she was holding the thorn in her hand it grew so that it became a great tree, one end of which struck itself down into the earth, and it became firmly rooted; and the other end of the tree raised itself so high in the air that she could scarcely see over it, and it became also wonderfully thick. The under part of the tree was red with blood, but the stem upwards was beautifully green and the branches white as snow. There were many and great limbs to the tree, some high up, others low down; and so vast were the tree's branches that they seemed to her to cover all Norway, and even much more.
HALVDAN'S DREAM. King Halvdan never had dreams, which appeared to him an extraordinary circumstance; and he told it to a man called Thorleif Spake (the Wise), and asked him what his advice was about it. Thorleif said that what he himself did, when he wanted to have any revelation by dream, was to take his sleep in a swine-sty, and then it never failed that he had dreams. The king did so, and the following dream was revealed to him. He thought he had the most beautiful hair, which was all in ringlets; some so long as to fall upon the ground, some reaching to the middle of his legs, some to his knees, some to his loins or the middle of his sides, some to his neck, and some were only as knots springing from his head. These ringlets were of various colours; but one ringlet surpassed all the others in beauty, lustre, and size. This dream he told to Thorleif, who interpreted it thus: -- There should be a great posterity from him, and his descendants should rule over countries with great, but not all with equally great, honour; but one of his race should be more celebrated than all the others. It was the opinion of people that this ringlet betokened King Olaf Digre, the latter St. Olaf. King Halvdan was a wise man, a man of truth and uprightness -- who made laws, observed them himself, and obliged others to observe them. And that violence should not come in place of the laws, he himself fixed the number of criminal acts in law, and the compensations, mulcts, or penalties, for each case, according to every one's birth and dignity (C). Queen Ragnhild gave birth to a son, and water was poured over him, and the name of Harald given him, and he soon grew stout and remarkably handsome. As he grew up he became very expert at all feats, and showed also a good understanding. He was much beloved by his mother, but less so by his father.
Notes: (C) The penalty, compensation, or manbod for every injury, due the party injured, or to his family and next of kin if the injury was the death or premeditated murder of the party, appears to have been fixed for every rank and condition, from the murder of the king down to the maiming or beating a man's cattle or his slave. A man for whom no compensation was due was a dishonored person, or an outlaw. It appears to have been optional with the injured party, or his kin if he had been killed, to take the mulct or compensation, or to refuse it, and wait for an opportunity of taking vengeance for the injury on the party who inflicted it, or on his kin. A part of each mulct or compensation was due to the king; and, these fines or penalties appear to have constituted a great proportion of the king's revenues, and to have been settled in the Things held in every district for administering the law with the lagman.
HALVDAN'S MEAT VANISHES AT A FEAST. King Halvdan was at a Yule-feast in Hadeland, where a wonderful thing happened one Yule evening. When the great number of guests assembled were going to sit down to table, all the meat and all the ale disappeared from the table. The king sat alone very confused in mind; all the others set off, each to his home, in consternation. That the king might come to some certainty about what had occasioned this event, he ordered a Fin to be seized who was particularly knowing, and tried to force him to disclose the truth; but however much he tortured the man, he got nothing out of him. The Fin sought help particularly from Harald, the king's son, and Harald begged for mercy for him, but in vain. Then Harald let him escape against the king's will, and accompanied the man himself. On their journey they came to a place where the man's chief had a great feast, and it appears they were well received there. When they had been there until spring, the chief said, "Thy father took it much amiss that in winter I took some provisions from him, -- now I will repay it to thee by a joyful piece of news: thy father is dead; and now thou shalt return home, and take possession of the whole kingdom which he had, and with it thou shalt lay the whole kingdom of Norway under thee".
HALVDAN'S DEATH. Halvdan the Black was driving from a feast in Hadeland, and it so happened that his road lay over the lake called Rand. It was in spring, and there was a great thaw. They drove across the bight called Røykenvika, where in winter there had been a pond broken in the ice for cattle to drink at, and where the dung had fallen upon the ice the thaw had eaten it into holes. Now as the king drove over it the ice broke, and King Halvdan and many with him perished. He was then forty years old. He had been one of the most fortunate kings in respect of good seasons. The people thought so much of him, that when his death was known and his body was floated to Ringerike to bury it there, the people of most consequence from Raumarike, Vestfold, and Hedemark (D) came to meet it. All desired to take the body with them to bury it in their own district, and they thought that those who got it would have good crops to expect. At last it was agreed to divide the body into four parts. The head was laid in a mound at Stein in Ringerike, and each of the others took his part home and laid it in a mound; and these have since been called Halvdan's Mounds.
Notes: (D) This is probably wrong, because one of the four mounds, known to be burial mounds of Halvdan Svarte, is located at Tingelstad of Gran in Hadeland. In fact, we have good reason to believe that Halvdan's entire body was buried at Stein in Ringerike. We believe that other mounds must be memorial mounds made in the memory of a great chieftain, which was not uncommon those days.
