Susannah STRIEBY (Hans Michael) was born on 21 NOV 1772 in Strieby Town, Northampton Co, Pennsylvania. She died on 18 MAR 1854 in Northumberland Co, Pennsylvania.

Susannah Strieby (Streby, Streeby), daughter of Hans Michael and Barbara Strieby, married Adam Crites, second son of Adam and Anna Catherine (Schmidt) Crites. It is presumed Susannah Streby's marriage to Adam Crites occurred after September 23, 1790 since on that date her brother, Jacob, petitioned for a settlement of his father's estate and her husband was not mentioned. Adam Crites was a farmer in East Chillisquaqua Twp, Northumberland Co, Pennsylvania. His father, Adam Critz, Sr., was a farmer and weaver who immigrated to America with his family of three sons, George, Adam, and Simon in 1750 and settled in Northampton Co, Pennsylvania. The name Crites is of German origin and means "cross". Variations in the spelling include Creutz, Crientz, and Crietz. Susannah is no doubt the same Susanna Strybi who with Michael Rabenold were sponsors for the baptism of Susanna, daughter of Peter and Barbara (Knerr) Rabenold on September 17, 1786 according to p. 28 of the records of the Jordan Lutheran Congregation, Whitehall Twp, Lehigh Co, Pennsylvania.
