Research Notes

Possible child: Catherina Bernhard born about 12 January 1750 in Ancram, Rhinebeck, , NY

Possible child: Charles Bernhard, b 1752 New York

Possible child: John Herman Bernhard, b April 1749, New York.

I have heard that the birth year may be 1713 and the birth place was West Camp, New York. I have not found records for this.

According to : Casseilman, Alexandra C. The Palatines from the Rhineland to a New Land, 1708 to 1710. The United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada, 1983. there were four Bernhart/Bernhard families from 1710 to 1714. Two familes are confirmed to have lived in East Camp. There other two are very likely also East Camp. The heads of the families are listed as: (1) Johann Jost Bernhart; (2) Johann Jost Bernhart; (3) Johannes Bernhard (Camp East); (4) Ulrich Bernhard (Camp East) (Yes, there are two with the same name.)

Possible Father: Johannes Bernhardt b: 9 DEC 1678 in Grosszimmern, near Darmstadt, Germany Possible Mother: Anna Eulalia Ernst b: BEF 21 MAY 1686

SJ: I believe the birth in West Camp is incorrect. I believe that is referencing the Johannes that was born in West Camp in 1712. There is documentation for that person. I believe that this person was born in East Camp.
