The surname Hershberger has been written as Hershberger, Hertzberger, and Herschberger. The Hershberger side of my family arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1737. Christian Hershberger (1714-1770) arrived on the ship Charming Nancy. His wife, Barbara, and children, Anna and Peter travelled with him. A son, Christian was born in Pennsylvania They settled in Berks County, Pennsylvania.
Other Hershbergers in my family tree include:
Christian Hershberger(1745-1815) married Magdalena Van Gundy(1744-1842)
Christian Hershberger(1775-1848) married Anna Schrock(1774-1824)
Mary Hershberger(1807-1881) married John Christian Livengood(1801-1859)
Researching three Christian Hershberger's has been interesting, to say the least. I have confused them a time or two!
