1. | HERR, Hans was born on 17 Sep 1639 in Zurich, Switzerland; died on 11 Oct 1725 in Pequea Valley, PA; was buried in Willow Street Mennonite Cemetery, West Lampeter Township, PA. Notes: "HANS HERR was born in 1639, in Switzerland, at or near Zurich. He became a member of the Mennonite religious society and a prominent minister of that denomination. When persecution became unendurable, many of his congregation emigrated with him to the Palatinate in Germany, which was then governed by a ruler who promised protection and religous freedom. This was satisfactory until the Palatinate fell into the hands of other rulers, when the Mennonites were again subject to persecution. When this occurred, a number of them visited William Penn in London, in 1707, and arranged terms with him to colonize a portion of what is now Lancaster county. In 1709, Hans Herr, John R. Bundely, Hans Mylin, Martin Kendig, Jacob Miller, Hans Funk, Martin Oberholtzer, Wendel Bowman and others bought 10,000 acres of land on the south side of Pequea creek. A warrant was issued for the land October 10, 1710, and it was surveyed October 23, 1710. In the meantime, Martin Kendig traveled to Europe and returned with members of the families of those who had come over in 1709. Hans Herr settled near Lampeter, and later lived with his son, Christian Herr, near Willow Street, where the latter built a large stone dwelling in 1719, which is still standing. Here the venerable Hans Herr died in 1725." (Taken from Genealogical Record of Hans Herr, by Theodore W. Herr, originally published 1908, pp. ix-xi; available from the Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society for $40.) Hans married KENDIG, Elizabeth Mylin in 1660. Elizabeth (daughter of KENDIG, John Jacob I and MYLIN, Jane) was born on 1 May 1639 in Manor, Westmoreland, PA; died on 9 Jun 1730; was buried in Willow Street Mennonite Cemetery, West Lampeter Township, PA.

Services were held in private houses. Congregations were organized and ministers appointed in Lampeter, Strasburg, Manor, Hempfield, Leacock and Earl townships by the Mennonites before Lancaster had changed its name from Hickory Town and before the county was separated from Chester county."
