There must have been some cheap land in Autauga Co around 1820. That is when my 2great-grandfather John George Herrmann settled there and bought land. There was a large migration to that area from the Orangeburg S.C. area about that time also. These were called the Dutch Bend settlers and were mainly Germanic in origin. My great-grandfather, James Thomas Herrmann, moved to Emanuel Co from Autauga Al. around 1890. Carol B.
