Harmon Back, Jr - Not the son of Hermann Bach and Anna Margaretha Hausemann

You refer to John Back, of Madison County as shown as son of Johann Heinrich Bach
1709–1789
Anna Bach
Anna Maria Hoffman Bach
1707–1782 at https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/167918055/john-back?

If you’re working on Bach families, you want to know this. It’s also amusing.

The Back-Bach Genealogical Society
It was all just a scam

They claimed that the Back (Bach) family
from southeastern Kentucky descended from Harman Back (Hermann Bach), who was form Freudenberg, Germany. But that was a blatant lie.

Pertinent to your current clarifications:

HENRY BACK & JOHN BACK

There really was a man named Henry Back, who had a brother named John Back, and they really did marry two sisters named Elizabeth and Margaret Hoffman. They were the daughters of John Hoffman and Maria Sabina Folg. But Henry and John's father was John Henry Back (Johann Heinrich Bach). That Back (Bach) family lived about 11 miles southwest of Culpeper, and practically next door to the Hoffman family. The two Back brothers married the two Hoffman sisters, around 1775, probably in a double ceremony. John Back died in 1794, and his widow Margaret moved to Rockingham County, Virginia. Henry Back died in 1809, and his widow Elizabeth moved to Rockingham County to live next to her sister. Elizabeth was seen living there, in the 1810 Census Report (with her son Aaron); she was also listed in the 1810 Tax Lists (as "Aaron Back & mother"); and she was listed in the 1815 Tax List as well. Elizabeth Hoffman Back died in Rockingham County, around 1815; her sister Margaret died there, around 1831. Elizabeth Hoffman Back never went to Kentucky, and so she never established the Back (Bach) family there.

Yes, I just connected Henry Back, of Madison County as brother of John Back, of Madison County

Did you want to correct Elizabeth? We know now who the “winner” is of the “memorial war.” :)

And now we have a geni pedigree error for

Henry Back, of Madison County

He should be R-M269, not E1b1b1a3

https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Bach_to_Back?iframe=yresults Group A-Germany to Virginia to Eastern Kentucky E1b1b1a3 [NO]

• https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Bach_to_Back?iframe=yresults J-Culpeper Co VA to Wayne Co KY “ John Back>John b.CulpeperVA>William WayneCoKY Unknown Origin R-M269”

https://www.geni.com/people/John-Back-Sr/600000000864832627 has the wrong parents, both in linkage and bio. There’s a Germanna app link: http://germannafamily.org/getperson.php?personID=I097378&tree=tree1

But FamilyTree DNA has a submitted pedigree from a tester:

https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Bach_to_Back?iframe=yresults Group A-Germany to Virginia to Eastern Kentucky E1b1b1a3 195252 HarmanSR>HenrySR>John>Isaac, Breathitt Co KY

I think we should move him over.

Bad profile link, sorry.

The pedigree should be Harmon > Henry > John Back, of Breathitt County > Isaac Back

Re: John Back, of Madison County --- Birth: circa 1738 "Probably, Thüringen, Germany"--- these guys are the ones claiming to NOT be the same as the E guys.

Well. They are correct.
