Hi William, I see also there was a post by Angela Piper whom is also related to this same Harvey and Jessie. I was re-looking at this and I do have the right Harvey and Jessie. I did not know Jessie maiden name of Matthews. Is Rachel the same as Rebecca as in the 1930 US Census? Its hard to track the current living members so hope that Rachel will fill in more.. but I have her line back to the immigrant Richard Birge in CT. One thing hard to trace the Birge's is the various ways to spell the last name.
Harvey is the son of John Harvey Birge and Rebecca Noblet whom were in Benton Co., AR. Also, John was in Illinois, Missouri and born in NY.
Harvey was in Delaware County, OK before 1910. In 1910 his surname was spelled Bergen (another different spelling). I'm not sure of the spelling of the 1st daughter is its Unns, Unus for Unis or something else. In 1910, Jessie was listed as having 4 children of which only two were still living. Unis (?) and Albie.

Looking for info on Jessie Matthews side?
Do you have any pictures?

Jerry & william,
My grandmother was a Birge and died 1905 in Terril, Indian
Territory (Oklahoma) in 1905. She was born in Bond Co., ILL.
Sally Birge's father Joseph and grandfather were born in Ct.
Yes, I have my ancesters back to Richard Birge. I have some
pictures of the 3 Birge's listed above.
This Birge family has spelled thier last name Birge all the
way back to Richard in all the cases I have found.
If we can manage to fine the connection we have to each other I would be glad to share my information.
