Hello.
I was doing a google search for Sebastian Homrich and found this site. I came across Sebastian and Anna Homrich's gravestone in Mt Calvary cemetery here in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It caught my eye because it listed where he was from. Sebastion's inscription read;
Sebastian Homrich
geb den 7 Sep 1830 in
WIRGES NASSAU DEUTSCHLAND
gest den 4 Oct 1907

Anna's was much simpler, just:
26 Mai 1844
12 Sep 1914

I don't know if this gives you any information you didn't already have, but I thought I'd let you know.

Looking for the brother and family that went to Kentucky when Peter Homrich,born 1821, son of Johann Adam Homrich of wirgtes came here to Michigan in the 1850's. I was told some went south of us. Parents are Johann Adam born 2-10-1791 in Wirges and married twice both times to Heibels. They probably came first to Lake co, Hammond Ind.
