Henrich, his brothers
Franz, Jurgen,
Johann Wilhelm, all came to
America. Johann Henrich's children Jurgen Henry, Bernhard,
Henrich Wilhelm,
Jobst, & Cathrine Maria also came to
America. Jurgen
Henrich settled in Cincinnati and the rest in Jackson & Scott counties in
Indiana.
Most of them changed their names. Juergen became George but went by Henry. Bernhard went by Henry. Jobst went by John H J. This has made it hard for me to track them. If this is your line let me know. I also have the offshoots of
Franz &
Johann Wilhelm's children. There are also a lot of twins in this line.
