Note: N4910 As early as 1683 a few venturesome Mennonites had gone to Pennsylvania where they founded Germantown. In 1690 Hans Milan is said to have erected the most pretentious house in Germantown. In 1696 Hans Graff and Henry Zimmerman came to Germantown. On June 24, 1710, Hans and Christian Herr, Martin Milan, Hans Funk, Jacob Miller, and Martin Kindig, Swiss Palatines, left London and arrived in Philadelphia in September. In October, 1710, they took up land in what is now Pequea Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa. After houses had been erected and the crops set out in the spring of 1711, Martin Kindig returned to Europe with bright reports. However, it was not finally adopted by the Mennonite elders until Feb. 1717, at the conference at Manheim that mass settlement be made in Lancaster County. It was decided to solicit the Holland congregations for financial aid to assist in the project. Benedict Brechbill was able to collect 4000 guilders. June, 1717, the vessels set sail from Rotterdam, spending twelve weeks at sea coming by way of London to Philadelphia. Sept. 8, 1717, Captains Eyres, Tower, and Richards appeared before the Council of Pennsylvania with a total list of 363 Palatines brought over in their three vessels (see Vol. 3, Col. Rec, p. 29). The names of the ships and passengers are lacking.
