David says, "I grew up only three miles north of the Hans Herr House. I used to work almost across the road from it. I am a descendant of Hans Herr. I have a picture of Mary Herr holding my mother as a baby. Mary Herr was my great-greatgrandmother and was twice descended from Hans Herr as both her parents were Herr." (Email, April, 2008)
