I have BEATHALTER in my line. If you're looking for a spelling variation. Keep in mind, our ancestor's surnames were misspelled when departing and/or arriving from/to wherever they were leaving or arriving. Good luck in your search.

I have been working for many years on a line of "Beerhalter" which emmigrated to Philadelphia PA shortly before or around 1850. The names which interest me are Henry (my ancestor) and Henry's brothers, Charles and Moritz. I have naturaltization information on the two latter, but have never been able to get any for Henry. I know that Henry had a daughter born in Philadelphia in 1855, named Sophia, and that Henry married a woman by the name of Margrete Ege. Henry died in Spring Bay, ILL near Peoria in 1859. I know absolutely nothing about the parentage of the three brothers.except that the U.S. census states the brothers were from Wuerttemberg which they list for almost all immigrants. Any help would be appreciated. I have seen the namwe in the 1850 census spelled as Bierhaltre. George Reamer greamer@fastmail.fm
