My Hermes ancestors came from either Crefeld (Krefeld) or Breyell Germany which I believe is right over the border from Belgium. In America, they were all involved in the textile industry, either silk or velvet.
I have traced to Jacob W. Hermes born in Breyell, Germany about 1830.
Any info about the region would be appreciated.
