Mr. Vander Berg was born in the Netherlands, June 7, 1857. When he was 24 years old he immigrated to the United States, settling in Le Mars. While in LeMars he worked as an exchange clerk in the Plymouth mills for over twenty years. He was married to Sintina Van Dalfsen while he lived in LeMars. In 1903 Mr. and Mrs. Vander Berg moved to Sioux Center where he entered the coal and grain business. He continued in this company until six years ago when he retired from active work. Mr. Vander Berg has always taken an active part in his church. During the fifty five years of his life he was an organist in some church starting at sixteen in the Netherlands. In order to improve the singing of the dutch psalms, Mr. Vander Berg composed some music to be sung with the psalms for the four voices. Besides being church organist for so many years he was a consistory member for a period of thirty years, both in Le Mars and Sioux Center. However he did not confine his activities only to church work but served for several terms in the city council here. Mr. Vander Berg leaves to mourn his departure besides his widow, one brother J. D.
