Bitler Family, Pennsylvania, Ohio
I want to share information with others researching the Bitler family. The Bitler's of Berks and Schuylkill counties in Pennsylvania were established by John (Johannes) Bitler, who likely arrived in 1736 on the Ship Harle. My research focuses on grandson Daniel Bitler and his family who founded St. Johns, Clay Township in Auglaize County, Ohio in 1834. Descendants William and Arthur Bitler were prominent members of that community; Daniel Bitler Jr. went on to establish a Bitler settlement in Kansas
