Stephan arrived in America in 1726 with his mother, Anna Katharine Hoffman, and his brother, Johann Michael Brecht; they settled first in Schoharie, NY and then in North Heidelberg Twp., Berks Co., PA (where he was one of the organizers of the North Heidelberg Moravian Church). Stephan had three wives, and the name of the first (David's mother) is not known. Elizabeth, widow of Stephan Brecht, died in 1751 per cemetery records for God's Acre, Union Church of North Heidelberg, 6 miles north of Robesonia, PA. "Rhineland Emigrants," Don Yoder, Ed. (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1981), p. 4: "The widow of Johann Brecht of Schriesheim was permitted to go to Pennsylvania in 1726 with her two sons Stephan and Johann Brecht. . . . Stephan Brecht, one of the emigrants of 1726, had children baptized in the Bern Reformed Church, Berks County (Elisabeth, 1738; Anna Maria, 1745)(Bern Church Records, 1738-1835, Hinke, Collection)."
http://www.berks.pa-roots.com/books/montgomery/b20.html offers: "The ancestor of this old and numerous family of Berks county was Stephen Brecht, a native of Germany, where he was born Feb. 17, 1692. He was one of the emigrants from the Palatinate who landed at New York about 1720. These emigrants first settled at Schoharie, N. Y., but because of the unbearable treatment they received at the hands of Governor Hunter, of the Province of New York, sought refuge elsewhere. Hearing of the justice accorded the settlers in Penn's Province, by the proprietors, and the fertility of the soil, excellent water and other advantages, many of them came into this district. Among them was (I) Stephen Brecht, who desired a tract of good land for himself and three sons. His land was granted him by John, Thomas and Richard Penn, lawful heirs of William Penn, on Nov. 27, 1745 [Recorded in Patent Book A., Vol. 12, page 349]. On this tract he made his home and died Sept. 24, 1747. His remains were interred in the North Heidelberg cemetery among the Moravians. His grave stone lies flat upon the ground, and is the oldest stone that can be found there. The inscription is in good condition. His will was made Jan. 6, 1746, by which his land was divided among his three sons: David, Hans Wendel and George Adam. To George Adam was given the homestead (now owned by Adam Dundore, of Obold), and the division of land between David and Hans Wendel was made soon after this date, and is recorded at Reading April 17, 1754, in Book A. Vol. 1, page 68."
See "Historical Sketch of the Bright Family," Albert G. Green, in "Transactions of the Historical Society of Berks County," vol. 1 (1898-1904) and typescripts in several volumes on "The Bright Family of Pennsylvania" in the Heber Gossler Gearhart Collection at the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
