Lake Telemark History

[Harold Barth]

Let's get a thread going from some of the old timers who grew up in Lake Telemark in the 40's , 50', and 60's. Who are you? Where are you, and How are you? I live in Denver, Co and am well. Jump in and chat.

I am the grand daughter of Stephen Bergdal. He develped Lake Telemark and also names the town. I wish I could find out more information about him. If you know anything about the history of Lake Telemark I would love to know more.

Patricia,contact my sister Evelyn at [e-mail] in Chester. She was a good friend of Esther Bergdal and can tell you much about Stephen.

Hello,
I am your grandfather's brother's granddaughter. His name was Halvard Bergdal and he and his brother Stephen started the community of Lake Telemark in N.J. My grandfather had two children, William, who was my father and his younger sister Esther. My dad had inherited the house when his mother died and this is the house where I grew up. I was really surprised to read your message! My father always spoke of his Uncle Stephen and his Aunt Pearl. Wow, this means we are distant cousins. We saw on the internet about another brother named Ed. I don't remember my father ever talking about him. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Harold, I sold you my old bike way back in the 40s for a buck. I kind of know your comings and going through our mutual pal Andy Krall. He visits in NC each year and frequently we do get together for dinner. I am retired in NC and still playing golf. Heard the ol' Green Pond Golf Club is now overgrown. Regards, Walt Swanson
