Suggested Birth & Death Date Changes:
Birth:
21 April 1700 is his Christening date. Thus, he was born before this date. His actual birth date is unknown, but it is reasonable to assume he was Christened within weeks or a month or so of his birth, making 1700 is an appropriate entry, but not the month and day representing his Christening.
Death:
9 Dec 1762 is not the day he died.
His Will was signed 9 Nov 1762 and probated 11 Dec 1762. Thus, he died sometime in-between these dates. It is not likely his Will was probated two days after he died. His actual birthdate is unknown.
As such the only known fact is that he died in 1762.
Genealogy of the Bergey Family, A Record of the Descendants of John Ulrich Bergey and his wife Mary, David Hendricks Bergey, M.D.1925:
"Whether John Ulrich was married before coming to America has not been learned; neither has it been ascertained what was the surname of his wife Mary. Heckler, in his History of Lower Salford township, states that 'there is some reason to believe that she was a daughter of Gerhart Clemens,' but the reason for this belief has not been discovered. The records of the Gerhart Clemens family do not support the belief".
