Martin Brungart Biography
Martin Brungart came from the neighborhood of Hanover, York County, in 1798. He purchased a Mr. Kreamer's interest in a lease for a tract of land in the eastern part of Brush valley, and located on it permanently. There are many descendants in Brush, Sugar, and Nittany valleys.
Mr. Brungart and his wife are buried in the old graveyard at Rebersburg, without any monument to show their last restingplace. Many of the old settlers are thus buried.
Children, Martin, Jacob, George, and John were the sons. Jacob and George remained residents of Miles township, and they are briefly noticed above.
Of Mr. Brungart's daughters, two remained in York County, one of whom, Barbara, was married to Daniel Bear; the other, whose name could not be ascertained, was married to a Mr. Yutzy. The rest came to Centre County.
Elizabeth, married to Frederick Albright, who used to live where Mr. Reed now resides; he sold his property in 1817, and went to Ohio.
Another of the daughters was married to Jacob Albright, Penn's valley; Mary, married to John Weaver; and Susan was married to George Geiswait, of Penn's valley. None of the children are now living.
