About us

The Herr Family DNA Program was started in March 2007 for the purpose
of identifying the relationship of the different Herr families in the
USA, Canada, Germany and Switzlerland.

The Pennsylvania Herr branch descended from Hans Herr, a Mennonite
Anabaptist Elder who fled the Palatinate for Lancaster PA about 1718.

The Michigan Herr branch descended from Fidelius Herr, who emigrated
from Oensbach, Baden to Nankin Township, Wayne County, Michigan in
1831. For more information about this Herr line, check out the family webpage at www.oensbachherr.com

Fidelius Herr's grandfather Markus Herr and Hans Herr were
contemporaries who lived a mere 15 miles from each other in Germany
about 1715.

A third Other Michigan Herr branch descended from Johanne Herr, who
emigrated from Saxe Goethe to the Flint Michigan area in 1851.

We invite each and every Herr to participate in this DNA program so we
can clarify our Herr family relationships empirically and more
precisely.

If you have any questions, please check out the Oensbach Michigan Herr
family web page at www.oensbachherr.com or write me at Rodger@aol.com
