This book was written and produced by Emanuel C.
Hertzler, Goshen, Indiana, and printed by Olde Springfield Shoppe,
Elverson, Pennsylvania, in 1995. It is 590 pages in length.
This book traces the descendants of Johannes
Hertzler
(circa 1710 – after 1755), who was born in Switzerland, maybe in the
village of Hirzel. Johannes emigrated to the Palatinate and lived in
the village of Eppstein, and then emigrated to America, arriving
November 3, 1750 at Philadelphia on the ship Brotherhood. With him was
his father, Hans Hertzel (ca. 1690-after 1750), his wife, and three
sons. He settled in western Lancaster County, somewhere in Hempfield
Township, in Pennsylvania, maybe near Millersville.
Johannes Hertzler was related to Bishop Jacob
Hertzler
(1703-1786), but was no brother. Since two genealogical books have been
produced on the descendants of Jacob Hertzler, Hertzler Genealogy by John Hertzler
(1885), and The Hertzler-Hartzler
Family History by Silas Hertzler (1952), this third book was
entitled The Other Hertzler-Hartzlers.
Information on persons in this book include
birth,
marriage, spouse, parents, occupation, involvements in church and
community, addresses of home, children and death.
Persons who helped compile and produce the book
included Paul W. Hertzler (1924-1994), Elam K. Hertzler (1926- ),
Harold M. Kilheffer (1930- ) and Leon E. Hertzler (1949- ).
The book also includes the Hertzler descendants
of
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, which was complied by Samuel Hertzler
Mumma (1893-1970) in the 1960’s and updated by Leon E. Hertzler
(1949- ).
The book also includes three articles on the
European
Hertzlers: "European History of the Hertzler Family," by J. Virgil
Miller; "The Hertzlers of Eppstein in the Palatinate," by Emanuel C.
Hertzler; and ""My Trip to See Our Family’s Past – To Eppstein in the
Palatinate," by Paul W. Hertzler.
