This gentleman, the first of the Balthaser Romberger-s in the United States, made the crossing from Germany to the United States with his father, Johann Bartholomus Romberger also known as John Bartholomus Romberger. Balthaser's mother was Anna Maria Brückner.
There are sources of his birthdate that conflict; his birth is often rendered as 1745-1747.
Like his father, Balthaser was once widowed, and thus had two wives. The first was Anna Maria Traut(t) Romberger, whom he married about 1770. She was born 1753, and died before 1797 in Mifflin Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. Balthaser and Anna Maria Traut(t) Romberger had children:
Anna Maria Romberger, born in Lancaster County on June 12, 1771, died in Dauphin County March 18, 1866
Heinrich Romberger, born in New Holland, Lancaster County, July 12, 1773, died before January 31, 1822
Adam Romberger, born in New Holland, Lancaster County, June 3, 1775, died in Pillow aka Uniontown in Dauphin County on August 17, 1868
Anna Catharina Romberger, born in New Holland, Lancaster County, March 19, 1777, and died in Wiconsico, Dauphin County, PA on July 3, 1851

and daughter Sarah as well.
