The Berger Family Tree
Follow the above link to discover the Ancestry of the Berger and Wise Families. The names and events in the Family Tree have been compiled over the past 23 years through many hours of research. I hope that you get as much pleasure from reading through them as I have from putting them all together.
The information has come from a variety of people, I would like to take this opportunity to thank them all for their help in assisting me in compiling what you will discover here, especially Valerie Ingram for the start she gave me with my research. Valerie's site can be viewed on the Links Page, Quest for Ancestors.
The books that I have here in my library have also been a great source of information and if anyone would like me to look up anything for them, please feel free to ask.

I also have many documents from the Church of the Latter Day Saints. These documents along with many others can be viewed on my Documents page on this site. There you will find a treasure trove of information relating to the Berger family. Birth, Baptism, Marriage and Death records are there in abundance, also, Notary Records from Woerth, Goersdorf and Weiler. You will also discover the Will of Jacob Bürger which was decided by the Justices in Wissembourg on the 11th of July, 1765. This decision took two and a half days to reach. I also have many contacts in France, Germany, North Dakota and Saskatchewan.
If I can be of any assistance to you or your family, please ask.
