Johann George Pfaltzgraff (or Pfaltzgraf; May 5, 1808 – January 7, 1873) was a German-American potter and businessman.
Born in Frielendorf, Germany, he moved to Foustown in York County, Pennsylvania, United States in 1833.
The marriage was frowned upon by his family in Germany, so Johann decided that a move to the United States was in the best interests of himself and Elenora.
He also started his trade that he mastered while in Germany by designing and creating his own pottery.
Other Pfaltzgraff family members are buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery in York.
