Research note: if you
look on the 1850, 1860 & 1870 Cheektowaga census,
the ZURBRICKs are mostly recorded
with the spelling "SHUBRICK" or "SHURBICK" !!
(The name was pronounced like "Tsoor-brick",
which may have caused confusion.)
The name has also been misspelled
as "ZERBRECK" and even "BURBIRCK" !!
Try all spelling variations !
Lancaster cemetery is located on the south side of Cemetery Rd., between
Broadway (Rt. 20) and Erie Streets.
The names are grouped to show family relationships, as they were on
one stone or side-by-side.
The " + " means one gravestone (with one or more names); also
means that a photo exists of the stone (scans
available).
The " * " means the info came from Cheektowaga vital records
or other sources, like burial records.

* ZURBRICK Charles
burial records say he died/was buried on 5-20-1966, aged 37, so born abt
1929.
- this is Charles H., the adopted son of Herbert H. & Frances C. ZURBRICK.
*****************************
***
* ZURBRICK Nicholas ? died/was
buried on 9-12-1893, aged 69; [b. abt 1824]
- from burial records.
[Note: I have no Nicholas /Nickolaus that matches these dates.
BUT I do have Catharine
Zurbrick b. 1824 who died on 10 Sep 1893 (per church records). Catharine
(nee Zurbrick)
was the widow of Nickolas Zurbrick, 1819-1886. (see above) So I think
this record is wrong
and should read "Catharine ZURBRICK, widow of Nicholas ZURBRICK,
buried on
12 Sep 1893, age 69". That would fit perfectly with church records,
etc.]
*****************************
* ZURBRICK Nicholas died/was
buried on 12-30-1914, aged 71; [b. abt 1843 in NY; his parents
b. in Alsace.]

Zurbrick.
- his wife was Lucy (b. abt 1855); his dau was Edith (b. 1878 or 1879)
- from 1880 census.
- in 1880 was living with 3 generations of KEIFERS: John (80), Nicholas
(42) & George (13).
- wife Lucy is possible match of Lucy Jane burial record, below, buried
with Orrin & Walter.
- Leander ZURBRICK, b. Aug. 1843, with dau Edith, b. July 1878 (1900 census),
is probably
the same person as Nicholas; Leander was widowed before 1900 &
Lucy Jane died in 1894, so it all fits. Nicholas /Leander was son
of George & Mary.
- newborn Orrin, likely son of Nicholas, was not on 1880 census in Nicholas
/Leander's house.
+ ZURBRICK Orrin D.
born Jan. 25, 1880; died July 3, 1892; buried 7-5-1892, age 11.

8, 1855 died Mar. 14, 1894, aged 39. [buried 3-16-1894]
[possibly the wife of Nicholas /Leander b. 1843, above.]
* ZURBRICK Edith
died/was buried on 10-10-1926, age 46 [b. about 1880]
[- Edith was possibly daughter of Nicholas & Lucy, above,
or dau of Leander Zurbrick (b. Aug.1843) who also had a dau Edith about
this age.
But Nicholas & Leander are probably the same - ie. Nicholas Leander.]
JOHN ZURBRICK PLOT:
