Your GGrandfather was brother of my Grandfather Frank. have you seen the book: Before Homesteads, by Gladys Whitehorn Jorgenson? in it she tells us that Jacob immigrated in 1844 at the age of 17, it includes a picture of him and his wife. I am excited to hear from one of James Hermans relatives since I lacked information on your family. I have listed, Joe, forest, Louisa, and Eddie as James's children. I found these names in the book, Saga of Ponca Lands, by Adaline S Gnirk. she states your GGrandfather settled in Gregory County in 1903 marrying Blanche Rubel and having 6 children. I have found some people are not interested in looking into the past, I don't know why. Its facinating to me. Please I would like to exchange info with you. contact me soon.
