General Notes: Husband - John Herr


He came to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, from Switzerland in 1710, with his father and brothers and their families. He built a homestead on a tract of land of 530 acres, which he bought of William Penn for £30 6s., with a rent of a silver English shilling yearly for every hundred acres; his title was dated July 3, 1711. He built his house of sandstone some five miles south of Lancaster, on the road from New Providence to Lancaster, in West Lampeter township.
