This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: BURGER, BERGER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zk.2ADI/770.1.1.1 Message Board Post: The book is called Past and Present of Shelby County, Iowa, pub. 1915, and contains historical data about the county, as well as biographies for residents and early settlers. There is only one BURGER listed in the index with that spelling: Lena BURGER. There are the following BERGER names, apparently married into the FISH family: Edward FISH married 1867 to Ann Marie BERGER, daughter of Daniel and Catherine E. (MILLER) BERGER, born in Erie Co., NY. Her parents were both born in Germany and came to America in 1848. They died in Richland Co., WI. No other info is given about their children. No, I'm not related to this family and am just sharing info in my book. I hope this is helpful.
