His father was a native of Macklinberg, Germany, born in the year 1859. At the age of eleven years, in company with his parents, John and Marie (DRENKHAHN) BERNIEN, he came to America. The family spent a short time in Chicago, and then came to the town of Ironton, where our subject's father grew to manhood and married Minnie SASS.
