↑[1] A Brief History of Yost (Joseph) and Jeremiah Miller and Their Descendants
Personal family information both written and from family Bibles gathered over several years of travel and library research. Original edition The Berkey Book and also 2nd edition which has many Berkeys that I personally researched as well as Line 26 which is started with Orange Grove Berkey. This is as close as our branch comes but in Line 3 appears his younger sister, Catherine Winchester Berkey who married Joseph Hochstetler who is DJH-4263. This was actually a mistake on the part of the informant named Wade Miller whose mother was a Burkey and since Catherine was in the household of Jacob Berkey he thought she was his daughter but she was not. Many of my relatives are in Descendants of Jacob Hochstetler first published in 1912 and the 2nd of his family publications Descendants of Barbara Hochstedler & Christian Stutzman first published in 1938 by Rev. Harvey Hostetler, D.D. long before personal computers. FEB
