  • Notes 


    • NATU: 24 Sept. 1762 Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania. Residence: York Co., PA.

      Lived on a plantation of 326 1/2 acres which his father acquired by occupation and improvement, in 1728 and which was later patented to him. This land was later owned by Daniel Kohr and sons, and others, and is half miles notheast of York. In prospecting this section the attention of Bernhard and his father were arrested by the magnificent timber, the trees being as straight as arrows and extraordinary height and circumference.

      Here Berhard determined to settle, and immediately began the construction of the settler's log house. What was unbroken forest in 1728, became open farm land in the late 1800's. Later in life and prior to 1780, Bernhard purchased the lot and house, No. 172 on the noth side of west Philadelphia Street in York. This home later was owned by a J.W. Buckinghan and Mrs. John Pallmtag. Bernhard died in this home in 1804 at the age of 85.
