Hi, I have found it helpful to join JewishGen (go to Cyndi's list and join the list). Keep in mind that the name BERG quite frequently was a suffix on the original name. And then, there are mine who changed their name entirely .... maybe more than once.

I have primarily been trying to track information on my Nichols side of the family. However, I would be interested in knowing more about Mary Magdeline Berg. Her name seems to have a Jewish origin, but I cannot confirm that, yet....ROD >
