Bernard's will left everything to his wife Catharine during her lifetime after which it was distributed to his heirs which by 1899 were quite a few. The list is in his estate file and seem to be grouped by each of his children. However, there are mistakes:
1) grandchildren: Frank Webber, Joseph Webber, James Henry Webber, Jane Miller, Louisa Lord, Sarah Streinbrun, great-grandchildren: Clayton F. Broomer, William H. Broomer and Alvin D. Broomer and grandchildren: Cinderilla Milller and Rosie Dewalt (also listed as Rosey Dewald) [children and grandchildren of son Franklin who didn't die until 1896 which is odd that his children are listed as heirs rather than just Franklin]
2) son Benjamin Webber
3) son Henry Webber
4) son George Webber
5) daughter Mary Moyer
6) son Barney Webber
7) son Jonathan Webber
8) son Joseph M. Webber
9) grandchildren: Amanda Reichert (also listed as Reinhart), Emma Hellenthal and Mary Schmidt (also listed as Smith). [Children of daughter Rebecca, wife of Frank Reinheimer, incorrectly listed as great-grandchildren]
10) daughter Sarah Long
11) daughter Catharine Wagner
12) daughter Caroline Mellon (also listed as Caroline Miller)
13) daughter Elizabeth Berkheiser
14) grandchildren: William Webber, Edward H. Webber, Anna G. Webber and great-grandchildren: Mrs Harry Gangewere (listed as Gangasacre), Mrs William G. Markle, Miss Minnie Scheck (listed as Schneck) and Mrs Harvey Fogel. [children of granddaughter Ella, wife of Jacob Scheck] [William, Edward, Anna and Ella were children of son Absalom)
