Hi Ann,

My information came through Rhea Hetrick, my first cousin. It was just a
penciled lineage and I copied it verbatim, i.e.,

"Jonn HERSHBERGER, SR, born between 1725-1750 . . . Emigrated from Rotterdam
9/30/1754--wife unknown."

It's my understanding that Harriet HERSHBERGER (married to a Hershberger) is
the Corresponding Secy for the Springs Historical Society, Springs, PA. It is
also my understanding that some of our Hershberger relatives now live in the
Old Stone House on Hwy 40. My Hetrick cousins took us there in 1996 and I
took pictures but there was hesitation to disturb them. It was understood
that the residents weren't open to company. Anyway, Harriet may be of some
help with the Hershberger lineage (1-814-662-2051). Maybe someone in that
area could call her to see where there might be more information. :-)
