Sternberg-438 and Sternberg-134 appear to represent the same person because: Hi - I'm pretty sure these are the same person. There was only one Sternberg family that came to Schoharie as part of the Palatine Migration in 1710, the 3 sons and one daughter of Johan Jacob, all born in Germany.

His Son Lambert had a son Jacob born in 1721 who married Anna Eva Fox in 1743. He died in 1777. Please merge them using these dates. Thank you!
