Description

By 1895, Georg Berthold was the owner of the SW Qtr. of Section 15 in Buxton Township where he established a homestead (photo). As shown in a family tree, Georg Berthold was Michael and Helena (Schotthoefer) Berthold's oldest son. Gerog Berthold was born in Bavaria, came to America with his parents in 1882 at the age of 19, and married Elizabeth Koch in 1887 in Reynolds, Dakota Territory. George died in 1935. Elizabeth (Koch) Berthold has a brief family history contributed to Vol. I in "Yesteryears in Traill". The descendants of George and Elizabeth (Koch) Berthold held a family reunion in Reynolds, North Dakota, on Sunday, 25 June 2023. This historic family reunion event has been described by Mary (Berthold) DeMers in a document (click on page 1 to see all 23 pages of this document), which includes a comprehensive account of the history of this pioneering family.
