Original home on Queen by the mill
We recently bought a home right by the mill on West Queen street and are trying to find information on its history. Two maps were found showing the land was owned by Rudolf Herr in 1860 with only the house next door having been built...the 2nd map from 1860 -1875 shows our home had been built and owned by a "P. Spotts"...I haven't found info on who that is yet. Any help or additional history would be appreciated please? The current address being 508 West Queen Street, Annville, PA.

Herr descendant
Hey. Would love to read your book. My mother is an “Annville” Herr. She grew up in and around Annville all her life. As we drive through town, she always tells me of her grandparents’ houses that they lived in or built. She is 94 and a Herr. She also has a sibling Herr living in Palmyra (he’s 96). I don’t remember them being interviewed for this book. They are definitely the most prominent “Herrs” in the area.
