Hi! I haven't made a definitive connection between my fourth gr grandfather James Husband and Herman. However, as I noted, family lore has always pointed to him as an ancestor. Unfortunately, what was passed down was that Herman was a hermit who went off and lived in the trees. I know better than that now. The James Husband who appears to have been the one to take the family to Muskingum County, OH could very possibly be the direct link to Herman. This James was born prior to 1775. One of James's sons, William, does indicate in the 1880, Licking County, OH census that his father was born in MD and mother born in NJ. James also appears to have entered land twice in OH. Once as a military bounty and the other time as part of a United Brethren land grant. We'll see how far I can get with this.
