In 1831 he was married to Susannah, daughter of Henry M. and Sarah (Bergey) Clemmer. She was born December 29th, 1810, and died February 15th, 1854.

After his first marriage he moved to Mannheim, on the farm now in possession of Peter Geiger, where he resided four years, then he moved on the farm now owned by Samuel Toman, a little west of New Dundee, the farm which was afterwards owned by his younger brother Wendell, where they resided one year; then he moved to Blennheim Township, Oxford County, about one and a half miles south-west of New Dundee, on a large farm, where he lived till his death. His family consisted of twelve children, all of whom, save the youngest, are of the first wife. He was one of those firm minded men of whom not a few were to be found amoung those old fathers who came from Pennsylvania. Though of a kindly disposition and high moral principles, when once his mind was made up, it was difficult for him to change it. He was a member of the Mennonite Church, and adhered strictly to these principles to his death. His life and conduct were such as would make an impression for good on his fellowmen and family. Though he was inclined, perhaps, to discount the views of others if they did not agree with him on religious lines, yet, we have reason to believe he was honest in his convictions. He lived on the old homestead in the residence shown below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	Hallman, Joseph B.

2706	Source Ezra Eby Rev. Jacob Hallman, "the eldest in the family, was born November 18th, 1803. In 1822 he, in company with Mr. Lutz, walked to Canada and made Waterloo County, Ontario, his home for about two years, then he returned to his native state where he remained until the following spring when he and his father and family moved to Canada. Some time after his arrival he was married to Eva, daughter of Christian and Polly (Ruth) Strome (Then spelled Strohm). She was born September 9th, 1805, and died July 11th, 1886. Soon after their marriage they moved on their farm in Wilmot Township, about two and one-half miles north of New Dundee where they resided until their deaths. In 1837 he was called to the ministry of the Mennonite Church which body he served faithfully for over forty years. His sermons were always plain, practical, and accompanied with a strong appeal to the younger members of the congregation to live up to the teachings of the Scriptures. His great and only desire was that he might pass the rest of his days in the humble yet honorable service in the ministry of the Lord, to which he was so sincerely attached. He died March 23rd, 1878. His family consisted of six children.	Hallman, Rev. Jacob H. (I02529)

He was a strict adherent to the Mennonite doctrines. Dates of his birth and death and to whom he was married could not be obtained when the writer was last to Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and it is doubtful whether any records are preserved that will give us more information pertaining to this old progenitor. His family consisted of *four sons...." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Source Descendants of: JOHN ULRICH BERGEY http://home.cogeco.ca/~familytree/bergey.html John Ulrich Bergey and his wife Mary were Mennonites as shown by the fact that he was one of the originators of the congregation in Salford, Pennsylvania, in 1738. His name appears among those to whom the meeting-house, and tract of land on which it stood, were transferred by the ministers and deacons of the congregation. At a session of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, held in Philadelphia on the 12th and 13th days of April, 1743, John Ulrich Bergey was naturalized. He had conscientious scruples to taking an oath and was affirmed. John Ulrich Bergey made his will November 9, 1762, and it was probated December 11, 1762, indicating that he died between these two dates. He was a comparatively young man as shown by the fact that only the older children were married, while the younger children were still under age. John Ulrich Bergey and his wife Mary are buried at the Salford Mennonite Meetinghouse. Their graves were marked with field stones until July, 1907, when a granite monument was erected on the spot by the Bergey family association, and unveiled with an appropriate ceremony 27 September, 1907. The Family Name In a deed, given in 1728, in which John Ulrich Bergey conveys 100 acres of land to Jacob Enger he writes his name Hans Ulrich Burgy. This is the earliest signature that has been found and it is presumed that this is the original spelling of the family name. John Ulrich's name as appended to his will is either written with assistance or it is an attempt to anglicize it so as to make it more readily comprehensible by English speaking persons. John Ulrich Bergey's sons used three different renditions: Bergey, Berge and Berky. The greater number of the descendants of John Ulrich write their name Bergey. Some of the descendants of John write the name Berky. A few of the descendants of Isaac and all the descendants of Abraham write the name Berge. Some of the descendants of Isaac also write the name Bergy. From: "The Genealogy of the Bergey Family" by David H. Bergey, 1925 -------------------------------------------------- Source: bownehistory.org Of the Mennonite faith, Bergey came from Switzerland in 1719. He had 11 children. Progenitors of a large family in Pennsylvania, Ontario and the Mid-West. This house stands as a memorial to him and his progeny.”	Bergey, Hans (John) (I02879)

The child lived but a few hours and was buried in the Mennonite Cemetery, the funeral having been conducted by Mr. Erb, who also built the casket. Some time after the funeral, the parents, not having as yet chosen a name for the child, selected a group of names which were written on separate pieces of paper and put into a hat. The mother drew the name of Allen, which name was then duly entered in the family bible.	Bowman, Allen (I14252)

Some time previous to her birth, the town was honoured by a short visit from the Princess Beatrice, a daughter of Queen Victoria, who appeared on the platform of the train as it stopped for a short time at the station. The lovely Princess, who was then twenty-four years of age, made such an impression on the mother that she then and there decided to name her next child, should it be a girl, after the beautiful princess. The baby girl arrived shortly after this event and consequently was given the name of Beatrice. She attended Agnes St. School and Central School (now Suddaby School) and had as teachers such well known instructors as Mr. J. Suddaby and Mr. Richard Reid. She is not married and lives in the old family residence at No. 30 Francis St. North in Kitchener.	Bowman, Beatrice (I14253)
