-*Source 1,  witnesses to Harman Hockenbury's 1833 compensation application profess to having known him for more than 35 years. This seems to suggest that he arrived in Path Valley, Franklin Co. PA by 1798.

-*There are more than one Harmon Hockenbury/Hockenbury of similar age in the record. The other Harmon we know of was a son of [[ Herbert Hockenbury]], but this Harmon died in 1808 in Newton, NJ.  A Harman Hockenbery lived for a time near our direct line ancestor, [[Peter Hockenberry]](b. 1718).  Harmon L. Hockenberry appears to be a likely candidate, but some of the evidence regarding him is conjectural - a starting point for further research but presently inconclusive.

+If related, the 26 year age difference suggests that Harmon L. could have been a nephew of Peter.
-* Birth Year.(Source 2) 1828 Tax Record Fannette Twp, Franklin Co. PA - lists Harmon L. Hockenbury, age 84 (i.e. born ~ 1744). (Source 1)  1833,  Harman Hockenbery, of Path Valley, Fannette Twp., Franklin Co. PA, lists his birth year as 1744.
-*Birth Place.  (Source 1)  1833,  Harman Hockenbery, of Path Valley, Fannette Twp., Franklin Co. PA, lists his birth place as Albany, NY.  (Source 4) John Hackenberry, also a resident of Path Valley, was also born in Albany.  John is age "about 32 yrs old" in 1782, so born about 1750 and thus about 6 yrs younger than Harman L.
-* Residence:  Both Harman and John were born in Albany.  Both reside in Path Valley, Franklin Co. PA roughly 45-55 years later, in proximity to the [[Peter Hockenberry]] family.   (The testimony of Path Valley residents (Source 1) suggests that Harmon L. may have been in Path Valley  for 35 yrs., so since 1798.  John is recorded in Path Valley by 1782. The circumstantial evidence is not conclusive but suggests these two, Harmon L. and John, could have been brothers or cousins, and both likely related somehow to the [[Peter Hockenberry]] family.
-* Father of Harman L.?  Researcher Chuck Owens suggests the possibility that (Source 3) Harman Haukenburier in Knowlton Twp.,Sussex Co. NJ  may be the same individual as Harmon L., heading west from NY but still living among family. If so he would be about age 30. Unfortunately, the abstracted record from ancestry.com doesn't list ages.   Honis Hoghanborogh, also on the Sussex Co. NJ tax roll but in Newton Twp., is suggested as  a possibility for the father of Harman, on the basis of his first name. Honis is a nickname for Johannes, the German form of John.   Harmon L. appears to have had a brother (or cousin) named John, and per Owens named a son John.
