Jacob Conrad Leonhand HERMES
My wife's gg grandfather migrated to New York City in 1854. It appears that he came to US as a teen and alone. Have been trying to locate possible parents. He was a barber in New York City. In fact, several possible siblings were barbers. Not sure if this was a family tradition. He became a naturalized citizen in 1879 and the witness was Louis F. Hermes (possibly a brother). Louis was granted citizenship in same month and it was witnessed by George L. Hermes.
