This Adam Köhler, a farmer, his wife Anna Christina, and son Jakob [Allendorf?] (age 13) are recorded on the 1767 census of Pfeifer in Household No. 38. They had settled in Pfeifer on 15 June 1767.

The death in 1831 of Adam Allendorf, son of Jakob Allendorf, is recorded on the 1834 census of Pfeifer in Household No. 114.
