My last name is Houser and I've traced my geneology back to the Johannes Homrighausen that you mentioned.My 5th great grandfather was his first son John.My information gives different spellings of his (the son's) last name:Humrickhouse, Homrickhouse, Homrickhouser etc...
He (the son)spent some time in Shenandoah County Virginia and settled in the Northwestern part of Ohio.The earliest census records I have indicate that at this point (1820) the name had been shortened to Houser.
Here's a good link mostly on Johannes' second son Peter:

Let me know if you have any info on my line.
