Johannes Bitler was a German immigrant to colonial America. Around 1736, he arrived at the Port of Philadelphia onboard the ship "Harle." He married and moved to Robeson Township, Berks County in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to established his homestead. In close to 300 years, his family has grown and spread throughout the United States.  We dedicate this project to our ancestors who have been a part of the fabric of American life.

Last Tree Update: December 21, 2011

December 21, 2011 Update - Just in time for your holiday family gatherings, I've posted the latest updates to the main family tree.  This includes about 840 new individuals since August, with over 380 new images of people, documents, or headstones from many different branches, with no strong concentration on any particular one. Watch for a big growth in the family tree in 2012 with the soon to be released 1940 Census and Pennsylvania Vital Records.

NEW - I have listed new information on my pages for William Bitler (1825-1911) from Columbia County, PA and his descendants, who lived primarily in Columbia County and Lehigh County. They are now linked on our Brick Walls page.  I'm sure he's connected, but I just don't have the evidence in hand yet.  He has about 136 descendants recorded in our records.  If you know who William's parents are, please contact me with the proof !

December 21, 2011 - We are now listing 23,992 descendants found. Are YOU on the tree yet?
