A sketch of Bern, Switzerland soon after the time of Peter Erb’s residence, 1757
On this day, 24 May 1801, Peter Erb passed away. He was my 8th great-grandfather.
In February 1712, Peter Erb was born in Bern, Switzerland to parents Hans Erb and Barbara Moser.
Peter Erb joined the following known siblings: Nicholas (born 1703), Barbara (born 1704), and Anna (born 1707). The final known sibling, Ulrich, was welcomed to the family in 1715. Nothing more is known of Peter Erb’s childhood.
