A short biography of G. Buery was published in an early history of this region of Minnesota:
"G. Buery was born January 25, 1826, in Germany. Came to America at the age of twenty; worked at his trade, that of cooper, in Canada and in Buffalo, New York but in 1857, migrated to Mankato, Minnesota. He has lived since 1859, in Birch Cooley; went to Fort Ridgely in 1862, for safety from Indians, but in 1865 returned to his farm. In 1847 he married Margaret Scherman who died in 1854. Miss S. Coffman became his wife in 1855. Eight children are living."
