The Pennsylvania Garber family spans several notable lineages and histories across the state, ranging from early German and Swiss immigrant farmers in the 1700s to prominent modern enterprises.
Lancaster County & Cumberland Valley Farmers: Settling primarily in the Pennsylvania Dutch country (such as Lancaster and York counties), early Garber\'s (like Johannes Garber) were tied to the German Baptist Brethren. Today, many descendants continue to operate multi-generational agricultural enterprises, such as the Rock Solid Dairy in Fayetteville (Franklin County) and GFI transport.
Historical Origins: Pennsylvania once had the highest recorded population of Garber families in the United States, according to the 1840 Census. Many of these early branches trace their roots to the Shenandoah and Augusta regions of Virginia, though their ancestors originally disembarked in Pennsylvania.
The Garber name is significant in Pennsylvania\'s arts history, most notably through the impressionist painter Daniel Garber (1880–1958). He settled in Lumberville (Bucks County) and was a highly influential instructor at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
