The Heorman name has changed spelling for over a period
of five centuries. The original spelling of the
name began with Herman. This was about 1500 when
Seuefferlin Herman was born. His son Hans still
had the same spelling as did his son Jorg. Jorg
had a son named Jorg and the spelling changed to Horman.
Jorg's son Jorg Simon added another n to last name
making it Hormann. Jorg Simon's son Georg David
kept the same spelling.
Georg David's son Georg Michael again
changed the spelling of the last name to Hoerrmann. Georg Michael
Hoerrmann was born in Germany in 1778 and died in 1813. Georg
Michael's son Johann Christoph Adam kept the same spelling, and his son
Johann Georg Casper kept the same spelling. Johann Georg Casper
was born in 1842 in Germany and died in 1911 in Kansas.
The Hoerrmann family came to America in
1883, before their last son was born. Johann's sons later
shortened the spelling of Hoerrmann to Hoerman. Johan Georg who
was born in 1872 was the only son to use the spelling of Heorman for the
last name. Johan Georg's three sons Floyd, George, and Paul used
the spelling Heorman, although on Floyd's social security number it was
still legally spelled Hoerman.
The Heorman spelling actually took
effect with the birth of Floyd's son, because the doctor made a mistake
on the birth certificate and spelled it Heorman. Johann Georg
Casper's other sons, which were Andreas (Andrew), Ludwig and Julius used
the Hoerman spelling.
