Pages 1-34 is the history of the Brinegars that connect back to Veith Bruninger
who came over on the Britannia in 1731. This lineage is written via the line of
his son Hans Adam, then Jacob, then Thomas William Brinegar, Thomas David
Brinegar, Andrew Jackson Brinegar and my great grandfather William Andrew
Jackson Brinegar. I have woven bits of American history into the timelines of
our ancestors.
