Anna Barbara Bergery: Robin's Roots Test

1677 - 1751 (74 years)

TNG Descendant Charts

Please note that you don't have to depend on these descriptions; you can quickly try out each of the chart types.

Graphical formats

"Standard" charts have a marvelous graphical format and show a fair amount of data for each person, but they generate so much whitespace that they tend to be wider than the screen (or a printed page) They tend to be hard to read and almost impossible to print if you generate more than three or four generations of data.
"Compact" charts have similar graphical layout, and are easier to read and print, but don't display any data other than each person's name.
Note that if you want to print a "Compact" chart with more than three or four generations of data, you should probably specify "Landscape" orientation when you print.
The "PDF chart" is kind of a cross between the standard and compact formats, generated as a PDF. On most computers, any web page can be printed as a PDF, but this PDF format handles page breaks for specific paper sizes, wheras PDF printouts of web pages just run the text through the page breaks

(The graphical charts' connecting lines sometimes disappear at certain zoom level. When they are missing, you can use you mouse scroll whell or hit control-plus or control-minus to change the zoom level.)

Text formats

"Text" charts follow a standard outline-style format that provides more (i.e. denser) data than the graphical charts do.
"Text+" charts are kind of a cross between the graphical and text formats. They can display much more data in less space than graphical charts or the "Text" chart. (That's good news and bad news). In particular, they requires much less horizontal scrolling, and can accommodate large charts in one printed page width (albeit sometimes with legal-sized paper in landscape mode). They are also much more flexible than the other formats, with several (perhaps too many) run-time options.
However,
- The process of printing a Text+ chart can be a bit daunting, and
- When you are looking at just a few generations, and when enough data is visible on the screen, the graphical charts tend to be easier to read.
"Register" charts are detailed descriptive reports. They contain almost all of the data that I have for each person, including free-form notes. But they aren't really 'charts' in the normal sense, and don't give this kind of overview of the family tree that the other charts give.
"Count" charts don't list descendants at all; they just show how many descendants a person has, broken out by generation.

Notes:

In 1934 article titled Richard Penn's Manor of Andolhea, in Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, a Christian Moyer is identified as a settler of Swatara Twp on Lancaster County as early as 1723 and as late as 1750. Swatara Twp is almost 100 miles from the homes of our Christian Moyers Jr and Sr, so the Christian Moyer of Lancaster County must be a different person.

Christian Zetty

(8.Barbara³, 2.Barbara², 1.Anna¹) was born in 1762; died in 1841.

Other Events and Attributes:

Residence: 1840, Washington County, Tennessee, USA; Male 5-9:1
Will: 10 Feb 1841, Washington County, Tennessee, USA
Probate: Apr 1841, Washington County, Tennessee, USA

Notes:

Evidently, two Christian Zettys were born in Pennsylvania in the early 1760s, and both married women named Barbara. Thus, many records and trees conflate the two men. Our Christian was born in 1762, and moved to Rockingham County, Virginia with his parents, and he married Barbara Miller there. I do not know when he moved to Tennessee. The other Christian Zetty remained in Pennsylvania, and is mentioned in many Bucks County records.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note by MillerCoy on Ancestry.com, posted 15 Nov 2013:
Christian is named in his father's will and is also listed in the "Tenth Legion Thithables for Rockingham Cty, Virginia". There is a marriage bond signed by his father for Christian and Barbara dated 1787. In the book, "VA Valley Records" he is listed in the 1788 Militia vouchers. The 1810 census for Tennessee and a large portion of the 1820 were destroyed except those for Rutherford Cty and Chrisitian was in Washington Cty, Tennessee. he is listed in the tax records for Tennessee in 1814/1819. Christian and his son Christian are both listed under their respective wills for Washington Cty, Tennessee. His will was written 2/10/1841 and probated 4/1841. He mentions his son-in-law George hinkle and his daughters Hannah Wattenbarger and daughter Elizabeth Hinkle and daughter Christiana Barger and son Christian Zetty, Jr.

Will:
His will directs that his estate (after burial expenses) to be administered "for the use of my beloved wife Barbara during her natural life", and for the remainer to be distributed "to my daughters Mary Cropecker, Christiana Barger, Hanna Wattenbarger, and Elizabeth Henkle". He notes that "I have given to my son Christian Zetty his share of my estate."
