Berg family of New Mexico & Arkansas

Looking for Berg relatives in New Mexico and Arkansas:

My gg grandfather was George Berg. My understanding was that he was from Germany. He may have been married more than once, but I know he was married to Miteria Manzanares, probably in NM. I know of the following children:

George Berg (lived in Arkansas)
Alejandro Berg (lived in Raton, NM or Trinidad, CO)
Dulcinea Berg (married Candelario Silva)
Paul Berg (lived in Mora County, NM)

There may have been more children.

Anxious to hear from any relatives.

Folklore???: I'm not sure if this is true, but it seems that George Berg (Sr.) had a son by his first wife. This son spoke only German. Another of his son's spoke German and Spanish, and the daughter (Dulcinea) spoke only Spanish and English. It seems that the Spanish/German speaking brother had to translate between the German-speaking brother and the Spanish-speaking sister.
