This Back/Bach family is not related to Harman Back (aka Hermann Bach), from Freudenberg, Germany. A significant amount of documented research proves this.
In 1994, an incorrect genealogy of this family was published, which claimed that this family descended from Harman Back from Freudenberg, even though there was not piece of evidence to prove it. Furthermore, everyone in the family already knew the actual genealogy of their family, which is what is shown here. Since then, several Board-Certified genealogists and other prominent researchers and historians have confirmed the actual genealogy of this family, which is what is shown here, by studying numerous primary source documents and other significant records and evidence.
He was the son of Johann Heinrich Bach and Anna Hoffman. He was born and raised on his father's farm, which was located along Crooked Creek, near where it joins the Robinson River.
His father, Johann Heinrich Bach, had changed the spelling of his name after he immigrated to John Henry Back, and so all his children then spelled their last name as Back.
Around 1775, he married Elizabeth Hoffman, the daughter of John Hoffman and Maria Sabina Folg. They were neighbors to the Back family.
Elizabeth had inherited 150 acres from her father, and so that was where she and Henry lived.
Henry and Elizabeth had at least seven children: John (born 1776); Benjamin (born 1781); Joseph (born 1782); Aaron (born June 18, 1785); Lewis (born October 14, 1787); and two daughters whose names and dates of birth are not known.
Henry died in 1808. The following year, his widow Elizabeth sold their 150-acre farm and then she moved to Rockingham County, Virginia, to live next to her sister Margaret, who was also a widow. (Margaret had been married to Henry's brother John.) Elizabeth's son Aaron and her two daughters went with her. They are all seen in the 1810 Census Report, living in Rockingham County. Elizabeth and her son Aaron were also seen in the tax lists of Rockingham County, from 1810 through 1815.
Elizabeth died in 1815, and she was probably buried on her farm along Wolf Run. Her son Aaron and his wife left Virginia in 1816 and migrated to Ohio.
