The 1848 census record suggests a birth year of 1825; 1851 marriage record suggests a birth year of 1819; the 1887 marriage record suggests a birth year of 1829; the 1894 death record suggests a birth year of 1820; the 1880 census record indicates a birth year of 1828; and the 1890 census record indicates a birth year of 1830. Given that his parents were married in 1823, it is believed that Bernard's actual birth year was 1824.
In 1870, Bernard Zerkwoitz was living in Vienna, sharing a residence with his brother Philip at 8, Blindeng. 20. His occupation is given as "kleiderhandler". In Trencin City directories, 1871, 1872, 1873, and 1875, however, "Bernard Zerkovitz is seen back in his native Trencin.
