Talk:Bernville, Pennsylvania

message: I removed the streets twice - this is not encylcopedic material and does not belong here (plus it was unsourced). I also removed the Christmas village, since it is not in this borough, but in the nearby township (put it there then). Finally, if a resident was notable, (John Berne), then first write an article on him or her, then add them in. Thanks, Ruhrfisch  ><>°° 13:15, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Coverage of the Christmas village might be relevant in part because it is the location of Lock #36, which itself is important in Bernville history.  It is also listed as the location of a covered bridge, but a photo of that bridge suggests that it is not a historic covered bridge but rather a small replica built for marketing purposes.  If that assessment is incorrect and the bridge is a historic bridge used for transportation, it could be of interest.--Rpclod (talk) 13:58, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Material not belonging here 

message: The article currently states: "One of the more historic buildings is the Hunsicker House at 431 N. Main street."  I was interested in adding details regarding this building to the Hunziker House article and contacted the Bernville Heritage & Cultural Society.  Below is the response that I received:
:First, thank you for your patience.  Second, we're sorry to disappoint you, but there is no known historic "Hunsicker" house in Bernville, PA.  Our Main Street (North and South, a continuous stretch) is very lengthy--about 3/4 miles--and contains many buildings of historic significance. There is a 431 N. Main; it is a well-maintained brick building, and that address is one-half of the building, the other being 433.  I have touched base with two Bernville individuals whose memory stretches back to the '30s or '40s, and neither has any knowledge of anyone living in Bernville with that last name.  I looked through the Bernville history book (written in 1976) which contains a walking tour done by those who actually searched deeds back to the early nineteenth century, and I could only locate one reference to a business at the extreme end of town -- "Bernville Cutlery...operated by Jacob Myers who made spoons and specialized in knives for cutting meats....It is also the former site of blacksmith shops operated by Mr. Koenig, Christian Schweikert, and later Samuel Huntzinger, who rebuilt the shop after a fire destroyed it."  This location is now somewhat rundown; it nowhere near resembles a shop. It is basically a carport used to park cars.  I also looked at the map of house owners in the years 1819, 1854, 1860, & 1876, and there is no one owning that property with that last name, and no one with that last name owning any other property. I also looked through the list of soldiers for all the previous wars, and no one with that last name appears. If you are still interested in pursuing the background of this particular house, I can put you in touch with a woman who might be able to help you do that research.  You are also welcome to look through information in our local library, if you live nearby.  The history book is there (it's very comprehensive) as well as census records of those living in Bernville in the late 1800s and early 1900s.  Bernville has an interesting history, and we are sorry to disappoint you regarding this particular building.
Based on this, I request that whoever added the reference to Hunsicker House provide some citation to support the factual assertion.  Otherwise, I recommend that this sentence be removed.--Rpclod (talk) 02:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for checking into this - I still watch the article, but have been quite busy and was slow in replying. The October 16, 2007 edit I made was reverting vandalism diff. I did not add the information on the Conrad House in the first place - that was an anonymous IP user on Novemeber 3, 2007 diff. I removed a bunch of stuff they added (i.e. names of all of the streets in the borough) and moved the stuff that seemed encyclopedic around, including the Conrad House information diff on November 4, 2007. If you note, I added a  tag to the Conrad House information then too. I watch this article for reasons I no longer recall and do not have any special knowledge or familiarity with the place. I am fine with removing the Conrad / Hunsicker House information, especially in light of the email from the historical society. Thanks, Ruhrfisch  ><>°° 16:33, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
