Christian Bergey

  Noted events in his life were:

• Property, 1769. In 1769, my brother, Michael was unable to manage the homestead, so I took nominal possession of the land until the place could be sold by sheriff and purchased legally. I lived on my parent's homestead, which I purchased from my brother Michael in September 1790.
