Georg Matthaus Herbst
4th Great-Grandfather of Anna Herold Schneider

[NOTE: on an online transcription of the original Hardheim church records, Georg Matthaus Herbst is given the reference # 357.4 from the record of his father Johann Michael Herbst. However, the dob given on this record is that of his brother Johann Franz Georg Herbst AND the name as listed is not "Matthaus" but "Johann Franz Georg". The reference # 357.a is for "Johann Georg Franz" but has Matthau's dob. Viz, to wit, and ergo, I must wait until I can view the original records to sort this one out. But for now, I am going under the assumption that that name on ref #357.1a should have read "Georg Matthaus"]

And so...
