> There are lots of Hockenberrys just north of the Washington Co MD line in
Franklin County PA. The original settlers, as far as I have been able to
determine, were named Herman and John. From my notes:

was born 10 Mar 1744 at Albany, NY. He lived in Sussex County, NJ when he
enlisted and lived there 2 or 3 years after the Revolution. He then moved to
