INTRODUCTION

-iC. '‘kJ^ j*

\

The War of the Revolution brought all emigration from Europe to America to a stop. It also made all laws relating to immigration obsolete. The colonies were now independent states, with no king to swear allegiance to and no pope to fear. Hence new laws were necessary, which would take ac- count of these new conditions.

ORIGIN OF THE LATER LISTS

With this background in view the later lists, beginning in 1785, can readily be accounted for. Shortly after the close of the- War, when imimigration again set in, the General Assem- bly of Pennsylvania passed, on April 8, 1785, the following statute :

An Act for establishing the office of Register of all German passen- gers, who shall arrive at the Port of Philadelphia, and of all in- dentures by which any of them shall be bound servants for their freight, and of the assignments of such servants in the city of Philadelphia.

Section I. Whereas, hy several acts of assembly of the province of Pennsylvania, all masters of vessels, merchants and others, importing by land or by water any men or women passengers or servants are obliged within the space of tw'enty-four hours after their arrival, to make entry and give or cause to be given upon oath or affirmation to the. officer for that purpose appointed, a true and just account of all the names of the servants and passengers so imported, which account the said officer should duly enter with the mayor of the city of Philadelphia, if such passengers were designed to be landed at Philadelphia. And that the said mayor should examine into the character and circumstances of such servants and passengers, and grant certificates containing the names of all the servants or passengers which he should judge fit to be landed; and that every indenture, whereby any such German passenger should be bound to serve his or her master or mistress, should be acknowledged before the mayor or recorder of the city of Philadelphia, and he keep an exact record thereof clearly expressing the province, county, city, borough or township wherein such master or mistress resides, and that the said mayor and recorder in the said city should in like manner keep

vi Pennsylvania German Pioneers

a record of the assignments of servants, therein expressing the places of the assignee’s abode:

Section II. And whereas since the change of the government of Pennsylvania, the offices of mayor and recorder of the city of Philadel- phia have been vacated, and the justices of the peace of the said city collectively, or any three of them by an act of this commonwealth, are empowered to do and perform certain special matters and things, for- merly directed to be done and performed by the mayor, recorder and aldermen of the said city; but no provision has been hitherto made by law for registering the names of the German passengers, who shall ar- rive at the port of Philadelphia, and taking the acknowledgment of the indentures of such passengers as shall or may bind themselves servants for their freight: And whereas reason and justice require that the officer who is to execute so important a trust for foreigners, should be fully acquainted with their language, and able to converse with them.

Section III. Be it enacted and is hereby enacted by the Representatives of the Freemen of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in General Assembly met, and by the authority of the same. That an office for registering all German passengers who at any time hereafter shall arrive at the port of Philadelphia, and the execution of all such indentures by which any such passengers shall bind him or herself servants for their freight, shall be and is hereby established ; and that a person understand- ing and speaking the English and German languages with ease and propriety, an inhabitant of the said city, in confidence and reputation with the public for his integrity and discretion, shall from time to time be appointed and commissioned by the president or vice-president in council, and being duly sworn to the true and faithful performance of the several duties required of him by this act, before the chief justice or any one of the judges of the supreme court of this state shall be the register of German passengers arriving in the port of Philadelphia, and by virtue of his said office, shall use and exercise all the powers and au- thorities of a justice of the peace for the city and county of Philadelphia, as far as the same shall be required for the support and efficacy of his office and the laws respecting the importation of German passengers and binding them out servants and not otherwise ; and that the health officer having received from the captain of any vessel importing German pas- sengers the list of their names, shall with his German interpreter review all the said passengers on board, men, women and children, and inquire whether any of them are superannuated, impotent or otherwise likely to become chargeable to the public, and make report thereof in writing to the said register, who if he approves thereof, shall enter the same in a book for that purpose to be kept by him, and transmit the original thereof to the office of the secretary of the supreme executive council and give his order and license to land such of them as are returned sound, without any defect in mind and body.

Section IV. And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That all indentures of such German passengers, men, women and chil- dren, by which they shall be bound to serve, and all assignments of servants made within the said city shall be made and acknowledged be- fore the said register or his lawful deputy and by him certified, and the full contents thereof entered and registered in the same manner, and to the same effect, as servants indentures and assignments of servants were heretofore by law made and acknowledged before the mayor of the city of Philadelphia, and by him registered ; and that all persons 'whom it may concern shall be entitled to have a copy or abstract of such register.

Section V. And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid. That the fees of the said register shall be the same as were usually taken by the mayors of the said city, until it shall be otherwise provided by act of assembly.* Passed April 8, 1785. Recorded L. B. No. 2, p. 522.

In order to carry out the provisions of this law, Col. Lewis Farmer was appointed as the first Register of German passen- gers. He served in this capacity from 1785 to at least 1804. The first health officer under the new law was John Jones.

According to this new statute but one list of the names of the passengers was required. It was to be handed by the cap- tain of a ship to the health officer. With the list as a guide he was to examine, together with his interpreter, all the passen- gers of a ship, as to their physical and mental condition. The result was to be reported in writing to the Register of German passengers, who, if he approved, was to enter the same in a book and then transmit from time to time the original reports to the Secretary of the Supreme Council of the State.

According to a strict interpretation of the words of the law the Register of German passengers was to enter the report of the health officer into a book and transmit it to the Supreme Council. But as a matter of fact what the Register did trans- mit were the lists of the passengers. This appears clearly from three such letters, which we publish in this volume. (See pp. 14, 33. 40.)

CONTENTS OF THE LISTS

In accordance with these provisions only one list of passen- gers of each ship was made and preserved. It was the captain’s list. But, although the law demanded only the names of the passengers to be handed in, many of the captains were pleased

* Statutes at Large of Pennsylvania, Vol. XI, 1782, pp. 602-604.

viii Pennsylvania German Pioneers

to give much more, to the great delight of posterity. No less than seventeen captains add the ages of the passengers (Nos. 342, 370. 412, 438, 439> 458, 460, 475, 480, 481, 485, 486, 490, 491, 497, 501, 505 ) . Six captains gave the ages of the chil- dren only (Nos. 373, 389, 464, 487, 495, 499). Ten captains give the occupations of the passengers (Nos. 412, 458, 460, 475, 480, 485, 490, 491, 501, 505 ) . Eleven captains give their places of birth (Nos. 428, 460, 480, 485, 486, 487, 490, 491, 497, 501, 505 ) , in some cases, however, the names of the country or district merely, whence they came (Nos. 428, 460, 485, 505). Nine captains describe the personal appearance of the passen- gers, including their height, complexion, color of hair and eyes (Nos. 454, 460, 475, 480, 485, 490, 491, 501, 505). Two captains make reference to their baggage (Nos. 453, 475)- Two give information about the passage money and the amount loaned to the passengers (Nos. 455, 471). Two cap- tains state the number of persons in each family (Nos. 489, 495), and one captain includes in his report the contract made between him and his passengers (No. 469), a most welcome addition.

In general, we must conclude that these later lists are much more varied in contents than the lists before the year 1775.

Alongside of these actual lists of passengers, the State has preserved a number of other documents, which were consid- ered of sufficient importance to be included in this volume. They are as follows:

In the first place, there are three letters of the Register of German passengers (Nos. 333, 350, 356) , to which we have al- ready referred. They are of importance because they bear evi- dence to the fact that not all the lists have come down to us. For example, in his letter of May 19, 1786 (No. 333), Col. Farmer transmitted lists, extending from June 20th to Decem- ber 1785. In reality the eight surviving lists run from June 20th to October 29, 1785, and they do not contain 665 names, as stated in the letter, but only 642 names. This shows that one list or perhaps two are wanting.

Then there are several lists (Nos. 356, 386) that give the number of passengers brought over by various ships, but not the actual names of the people. These lists are of interest, be- cause they prove that passengers came from many other ports besides those mentioned in the ordinary shiplists.

Introduction ix

Again, there are four lists of persons (Nos. 336, 344, 345) 354), containing 77 names, of those who signed the oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. They are a counterpart to the lists of signers of the oath of allegiance to the King of England in Volume I.

Finally, there is a list of French passengers (No. 406), who were aided by a grant of $1,500, voted by the Assembly. Of these various lists only the last (No. 406) had been printed before.

Most of the lists printed in this volume were published by the State of Pennsylvania, in the Pennsylvania Archives, sec- ond series, Vol. XVII. But there are many omissions in that publication. For some reason which is not apparent at present, none of the eight lists of the year 1785, none of the seven lists of 1791, none of the ten lists of 1792, nor two of the undated lists (Nos. 440, 441) were printed by the State, so that, to- gether with the seven lists mentioned previously, there are 34 lists, containing 1,440 names, which appear for the first time in this work.

The statistics of the lists are of sufficient interest to be pre- sented in full. We give in the following tabular statement the number of ships and passengers for each of the twenty-four years, for which the lists are preserved:

Totals :

.... 9263

This summary shows that we present in this volume 175 shiplists, with a total of 9,263 names. When we add these to

X Pennsylvania German Pioneers

the 29,085 names, which are published in the first volume of this work, we get a total of 38,307 names, recorded in the shiplists. If we add the 77 names in the four lists of signers of the oath of allegiance (Nos. 336, 344, 345, 354), we get a grand total of 38,425 names. The actual number of passen- gers was, of course, much larger. The two lists. Nos. 356 and 386, add 3,146 other passengers, whose names have not been preserved.

When the American colonies became independent states, the ships sailing for America were no longer compelled to stop at an English port in order to secure clearance papers for American ports, but the ships came direct from the continental port, at which the passengers embarked. As in the preceding period most of the ships came from Holland. From Amster- dam came seventy ships and eight ships from Rotterdam (Nos. 339, 346, 361, 375, 402, 420, 450, 493). The other ports, from which the ships sailed, were as follows: Sixty ships from Hamburg, twelve ships from Bremen (Nos. 417, 430, 441, 442, 443, 444, 456, 458, 467, 482, 490, 498), seven ships from Tonningen in Denmark (Nos. 473, 478, 491, 492, 494, 501, 506), one ship from Copenhagen (No. 382), one ship from St. Thomas (No. 483), one ship from St. Domingo (No. 386), one ship from Lubeck (No. 476), one ship from London (No. 347) and one ship from Frederickstadt (No. 472), while in the case of twelve ships the port of departure is not given (Nos. 325, 328, 329, 330, 376 406, 413, 432, 439, 481, 485, 505). .

TERMINATION OF LISTS IN 1808

As the lists of pioneers, preserved by the State of Pennsyl- vania, come to an end abruptly in the year 1808, the question naturally arises: Why do the lists stop in 1808?

In looking about for an adequate reason, we must remind ourselves, first of all, of the state of affairs in Europe at that time.*

In 1802, the peace of Amiens ended the War between France and England. But, when a commercial war was kept up even after the military operations had ceased, peace was not

of long duration. War broke out again between the two coun- tries in May 1803, and continued until the fall of Napoleon in 1815.

Upon the renewal of hostilities England seized all French and Dutch vessels in British ports. In June 1803, the mouths of the Elbe and Weser rivers were declared in a state of block- ade and, in August 1804, this blockade was extended from the Weser to the port of Brest on the French coast. Although this blockade was annulled in 1805, it was renewed and further extended in April 1806.

Napoleon, meanwhile, contented himself with arresting all Englishmen on French soil, with occupying Hanover, which belonged to the English royal house, with seizing Cuxhaven, at the mouth of the Elbe, and closing the North Sea ports to English trade. But he delayed more stringent measures until he had humbled Prussia by his victories at Jena and Auerstadt in October 1806. Then, when all of western Germany was un- der his control, he issued the famous Berlin Decree, from the capital of his defeated foe, on November 21, 1806. It em- braced four main points: (i) All the British isles were de- clared in a state of blockade and all commerce with them was prohibited; (2) British subjects within French territory were declared prisoners of war; (3) All trade in British goods was prohibited and goods from England and her colonies were de- clared fair prizes of war, when captured; (4) Every vessel from England or her colonies was refused access to any port on the continent of Europe.

As far as the blockade of Great Britain was concerned it was only a blockade on paper and hence a mere grandiose ges- ture, for, as Lord Erskine remarked before Parliament: “Na- poleon might just as well have declared the moon in a state of blockade.” Through the victory of Nelson at Trafalgar, on October 21, 1805, the French fleet had been swept off the sea. Hence France was powerless to enforce any blockade of Eng- land. But it imposed upon Europe a self blockade on land, which, if it hurt France and her allies, was supposed to injure Britain much more, and, hy preventing her from disposing of her goods, was intended to compel her to sue for peace.

The decree of the French emperor was answered on the part of Great Britain by a number of orders in council, the most important dated November ii, 1807. Through these orders

xii Pennsylvania German Pioneers

not only all enemy countries with their colonies, but also all places from which the British flag was excluded were declared in a state of blockade, trade in their products was prohibited and every vessel trading with these countries as well as its cargo was declared a fair prize.

Napoleon in turn answered these British measures with still harsher decrees, which interfered still more with the rights of neutrals. By the Second Milan decree, for example, promul- gated on December 17, 1807, he ordered that any vessel which submitted to the British regulations (even against its will), which allowed an examination of its cargo, which made a call at an English port and paid duty there, should thereby forfeit the protection of its flag, as it had become English property and, as a consequence, was subject to seizure. The result was that there were no longer any neutrals. They were treated as Englishmen in disguise or as confederates of the English.

Meanwhile important events had taken place in America, which were destined ultimately to draw America also into the conflict.

In April 1805, an American vessel, the Essex, with a cargo from Barcelona, Spain, had landed at Salem, Massachusetts, had there discharged her cargo, paid duty on it, and, after having undergone some repairs, had reloaded the same cargo to transport it to Havana, Cuba. On her way she was seized by an English warship, taken to England and condemned as a fair prize, because, as the court contended, the intention had never been really to sell the goods in the States, but in Cuba. Hence she fell under the prohibition that neutrals could not trade with enemy colonies, on the contention that this trade was not open to them before the war and was now only made accessible to them through English naval victories. In other words, neutral trade was prohibited from profiting by English naval victories.

When the news of this decision reached America there was great indignation. Merchants throughout the nation and cham- bers of commerce called upon Congress to retaliate. Hence, in April 1806, a Non-importation Act was passed by Congress, by which most of the industrial products of Great Britain were excluded. This act did not come into force until November 1806, but was rescinded six weeks later.

Its place was taken, in December 1807, by an Embargo Act.

Introduction xiii

This was due to the so-called “Chesapeake affair.” An English man-of-war stopped and searched the United States Frigate “Chesapeake,” and removed from her four sailors, one, be- cause he was a deserter from an English warship, the other three because when born they were British subjects.

In view of these high-handed actions of the combatants, America could do one of three things : It could resist the en- croachments of the belligerents with all her might, or tamely submit to all of them, or, finally, withdraw from all oversea commerce. Jefferson, who was a Virginia country gentleman, and as such regarded agriculture as the highest work of man and believed that giving up all foreign commerce might be a blessing in disguise, chose the last of these alternatives, and persuaded Congress to close the ports of the United States to all foreign trade. As a result, from December 1807 to March 1809, all commerce with foreign countries ceased. This had no effect on the madness of the belligerents, but was ruinous to America. Especially the New England States resisted the law to a man and evaded it in every manner possible, so that, in March 1809, the embargo was lifted. Its place was taken by a non-intercourse law, which limited the prohibition to trade to France and England, but gave the President power to sus- pend the operation of the law in case England rescinded her orders in council or France revoked her decrees.

A few days after having signed this law Jefferson retired and Madison became President of the United States, in March 1809. He had hardly assumed the presidency when David Erskine, the English minister, offered to withdraw the objectionable orders in council. A series of notes were ex- changed. In the first, Erskine offered to make reparation for the attack on the Chesapeake and return the three captured American sailors. In the second, he offered the withdrawal of the orders in council, if America would renew her intercourse with Great Britain, and in the third he named June 10, 1809, as the day on which the orders in council would be suspended, as far as American vessels were concerned. In view of these promises President Madison issued a proclamation, in which he announced that after June 10, 1809, commerce between the two countries would again be reopened. This proclamation was hailed with great joy by the commercial interests of the coun- try. But, when these promises became known in England, the

xiv Pennsylvania German Pioneers

British government promptly repudiated them and recalled her minister. This put Madison in the awkward plight of hav- ing to recall his proclamation and issue a new proclamation, by which all trade with England was again stopped.

Meanwhile Napoleon had retaliated on America by the Rambouillet decree of March i8io. By it every American ves- sel which had entered a French port since May 20, 1809, was ordered seized. The decree was not published till May 1810, by which time $10,000,000 worth of American goods had accumulated in French ports. These were seized and sold for the benefit of the French treasury.

All earlier acts having failed to bring the belligerents to their senses and respect the rights of neutrals. Congress tried another method of retaliation. On May i, 1810, it passed the Macon bill. No. 2, which permitted American trade with the rest of the world and gave the belligerents until March 3, 18 1 1, to rescind their orders and change their decrees, but threatened to put the non-intercourse act in force against that country which had not modified its rules of war.

When this law was submitted to Napoleon by his foreign minister Champagny, he considered it an excellent means whereby to draw America into the conflict on the side of France, by pretending to suspend his decrees and causing the United States to enforce the Non-intercourse Act against Great Britain only.

In carrying out this plan he ordered Champagny to notify the American minister that the decrees of Berlin and Milan would be revoked on November i, 1810, if by that time Great Britain had rescinded her Orders in Council, or the United States had caused Great Britain to respect her rights. Mad- ison, taking it for granted that the decrees of Napoleon had actually been revoked on November ist, issued a proclamation on November 2nd, giving Great Britain three months’ notice that, unless her Orders in Council were revoked by February 2, 1811, the Non-intercourse Act would be put into effect against Great Britain. When the day set arrived. Great Britain had not acted. Hence President Madison persuaded Congress to enforce nine sections of the Non-intercourse Act of 1809 against Great Britain.

Meanwhile Napoleon had rescinded his decrees on paper only, for after November i, 1810, a number of American

Introduction

vessels which appeared in French ports were seized. His ex- planation that while the decrees were repealed, as far as United States vessels were concerned, the municipal laws of French ports were still in force, was a mere subterfuge. Mad- ison, however, accepted this explanation, because some of the American vessels coming direct from America had been re- leased. He called Congress into special session in November i8ii, complaining in his message that the repeal of the French decrees had not induced Great Britain to rescind her Orders, but that they were enforced more vigorously than ever before; that the ports of America were blockaded by English ships and that American rights were disregarded. As a result Con- gress prepared for war, by ordering the ranks of the regular army to be filled and calling for 50,000 volunteers.

Meanwhile France had issued a decree, on March 2, 1811, but not published until May 1812, by which it was ordered that the Berlin and Milan decrees were not to apply to Amer- ican vessels. And, finally, on June 23, 1812, Great Britain re- scinded her Orders in Council, as far as American vessels were concerned. But this last action came too late. Four days before, on June 19, 1812, Madison by proclamation announced that a state of war existed between the United States and England. The war lasted until Christmas 1814.

This review of some of the outstanding events leading up to the War of 1812 has shown that there were at least three causes for the stoppage of immigration into Pennsylvania. First, the decrees of France, establishing a Continental Block- ade, and the English Orders in Council, prohibiting neutrals to trade with France and her colonies. Secondly, the various American acts of Congress, establishing a self-blockade of the United States and prohibiting all foreign trade, and thirdly, the War of 1812, which did not come to an end until 1814.

There was, however, still another cause for the cessation of the immigrant lists of Pennsylvania in 1808. It was the Con- stitution of the United States.

The ninth section of the first article of the Constitution pro- vides that “the immigration or importation of such persons as any of the States, now existing, shall think proper to admit, shall not be prohibited by Congress prior to the year 1808, but a tax may be imposed on such importation not exceeding ten dollars for each person.”

xvi Pennsylvania German Pioneers

The framers of the Constitution intended originally to have this section apply to slaves exclusively. Thus Luther Martin, one of the members of the Constitutional Convention wrote to the Maryland Legislature:

“The design of this clause is to prevent the General Gov- ernment from prohibiting the importation of slaves.” *

The language of the Constitution is, however, vague enough to admit of another interpretation. Thus Mr. Iredell, later one of the Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, declared before the legislature of North Carolina: “The com- mittee will observe the distinction between the two words mi- gration and importation. The first part of the clause will extend to persons who come into this country as free people, or as slaves bought. But the last part refers to slaves, because free people cannot be said to be imported. The tax, therefore, is only to be laid on slaves who are imported and not on free people who migrate.” *

But while Judge Iredell limited the right of taxation to the importation of slaves, others contended that the language of the Constitution permitted Congress to tax voluntary immi- grants as well as slaves. According to this interpretation of the Constitution Congress had power to legislate on the subject of immigration as well as the importation of slaves. This inter- pretation of the Constitution came ultimately to prevail through a long series of legal decisions.

Accordingly, on March 2, 1819, the first federal law on the subject of immigration was passed, which contained the provi- sion that at the port of landing a full and complete report be made by the ship’s officer to the custom authorities, which was to include a statement as to the name, sex, age and oc- cupation of each passenger. This resulted in the first official statistics, prepared by the Federal Government, for the year ending September 30, 1820. By this law of Congress the keep- ing of immigration records passed from the states into federal control.

oncers. But, since this introduction was printed, a number of new documents have been discovered, which are of sufficient interest and importance to warrant their presentation by fac- simile and their translation for the use of the general reader.

The most interesting of these documents is a Letter of Manumission and a permit to emigrate, issued by the Arch- bishop of Mayence to John Valentine Griesheimer, on April 28, 1730. It reads as follows : *

“We, by the Grace of God, Francis Lewis, Archbishop of Mayence, Chancellor and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire, Administrator of the Grand Master’s Office in Prussia, Master of the German Order in Germany and France, Bishop of Worms and Breslau, Dean and Lord of Ellwangen, Count Palatine of the Rhine in Bavaria, Duke of Gulich, Cleve and Berg, Prince of Moers, Count of Veldentz, Sponheim, March and Ravenspurg, Lord of Ravenstein, Freudenthal, Cullen- berg, etc. etc.,

“Herewith we let it be known that. Whereas our subject at Lampertheim, John Valentine Griesheimer, for himself, his wife and four children, namely Caspar, John, Anna Margaret and Jacob, has asked that we might be pleased, in view of the good fortune that awaits them elsewhere, graciously to release all of them from the serfdom, to which they are subject, gra- ciously to grant their submissive petition and manumit and dismiss them,

“Therefore, they are herewith and by virtue of this letter, from now on and forever afterwards, released and freed from their serfdom, yet with this explicit reservation, that, if the above-mentioned John Valentine Griesheimer, his wife and children, shall sooner or later return and settle again in our lands or under our jurisdiction, in which we have inherited the right of serfdom, that they shall ipso facto be subject to their former serfdom and without further process shall be sub- servient unto us.

“In testimony of this our certificate of manumission our seal has been affixed. Given at Worms, April 28, 1730.

The Electoral Government of Worms.

From this document we learn that some form of serfdom existed in the archepiscopate of Mayence as late as the year 1730. It probably consisted merely in the payment of an an- nual tithe from the produce of flocks and fields to the sov- ereign. The last vestiges of serfdom did not disappear in Germany until after the wars of Napoleon, through the re- awakening of the Spirit of Freedom in 1812.

Another interesting document is a Permit to emigrate, is- sued to Henry Gerhard Diener, on May 13, 1751, by the Prince of Isenburg and Buedingen. It reads: *

“We, by the grace of God, Wolffgang Ernest, Prince of Isen- burg and Buedingen, etc., etc.,

“Herewith and by these presents make it known that, whereas Henry Gerhard Diener, born at Birstein, has sub- missively petitioned and requested, that we release him and his family from the claims to which they are subject to us and the County of Isenburg, and graciously permit him to leave our land, we graciously grant this submissive request;

“Therefore, by virtue of these presents we grant that the above-mentioned Henry Gerhard Diener, together with his family, may leave our land, move to another place and settle there.

“In testimony of which our secret printed Princely Seal has been affixed. Given at Birstein, May 13, 1751.”

Then we present a pastoral letter of recommendation, is- sued to Joseph Eberhard on his departure from Eych, in the Palatinate, on May i, 1727. It reads as follows: t

“The bearer of this, Joseph Eberhard, born at Jaegersdorf, in Switzerland, has been a member of our church. Reformed according to the Word of God, as he proved by the observance of the external duties of our religion, by which we judge in the spirit of love, such as the diligent attendance upon the preach- ing of the Word, the reverent use of the Holy Communion

t See illustration, facing p. 114. Joseph Eberhard arrived at Philadelphia, Oct. 16, 1727. As Michael Eberam (Vol. I, p. 16) is Michael Eberhardt (p. 17), so Joseph Eberam (Vol. I, p. 16), sick, must be this Joseph Eberhard.

and the Christian conduct of his life, as far as it is known to us ;

“Therefore, the pastors and elders of the churches, to whom this letter is shown, are requested graciously to receive him as such and admit him, under their supervision, to their Christian fellowship. In testimony of which the present attes- tation is submitted. Eych, in the Electoral Palatinate, May i, 1727.

N. DIeterIci, Pastor.”

Finally, we present two real passports. The first, dated Oc- tober 15, 1723, was issued to Peter Reist. It reads as follows:

“The bearer of this, Peter Reist, born at Rhein Diirckheim, intending to travel to Rhein Diirckheim, within the episcopate of Worms, is departing from here, a place at which no pest- ilential plague, but, thank God, pure air prevails. Therefore, all places can allow him to pass and repass. Given the 15th day of October, 1723.

fSEAL OF THE I Attested by the chancellery at

[CANTON OF BERN] Summiswald.”

Viseed at Montbelliard, Noyember 29th, 1723.*

The second passport, that of Andrew Loretz, issued to him at Chur, September 8, 1784,! has already been translated in the Introduction to Volume I, p. XXXVIII.

INDEXES IN THIS VOLUME

Finally, some words of explanation may be given about the Indexes, presented In this volume. They are as exhaustive as possible, so as to make the whole contents of this work readily accessible to the reader. It is hardly necessary to say that the greatest possible care has been used in the construction of the Indexes. To give only a single proof. After the Index of the Pioneers had been printed, every one of Its more than 50,000 references was checked up with the printed lists, a work which took nearly three months to complete.

The most difficult index to prepare was the last, that of the pioneers, due to the many, and often contradictory, variants.

* See illustration, facing p. 82. t See illustration facing p. 130.

XX Pennsylvania German Pioneers

Not every variant of a surname, found in the lists was given, because many of them are mere scribal monstrosities, that have no value. In selecting the names to be recorded in the index, the editor was guided by the following principles: Whenever a passenger himself signed his name, his spelling was adopted, as every man ought to be the best judge as to how to spell his name. There is only this exception to be made, that some of the passengers were so near the line of illiteracy, that they actually did not know how to spell their names. Some could not write their name twice in the same way. In that case the correct form of the name was given first in the index, followed by an asterisk, e. g., Schiitzer * (Shitzer), which means that the form Shitzer is actually found in the text, but that it should be spelled Schiitzer. If the passenger was unable to write his name, that form of his surname was placed first which comes nearest to the original. Thus, e. g., when the captain’s list reads Hans Michael Verdus (I, 35), but the other two lists agree in reading Hans Michael Wiedner (pp. 36, 37), there can be no question that the latter is the correct form. Sometimes none of the various officials who wrote down the name understood it correctly, as e. g. when in list No. 10 all three clerks made an Irishman out of a German, by writing Johannes Mcinterfer. Fortunately his wife, or other relative, was on board, and in this case the clerk wrote Phronick Mick- inturfer. That sounds more like a German name and hence the two names were entered under that form. The original was probably something like Meckendorfer, but as this is doubtful, the editor preferred not to guess. In other cases a guess can be ventured that has every probability in its favor. Thus we find on p. 346 Martin Oadt, p. 347, Marti Tienod, and p. 348, Martin Oats. The correct form must have been Martin Ott, under which it has been recorded, with a cross reference from Oadt to Ott.

Generally speaking the captains’ lists have the least value, as far as the spelling of the names is concerned. They were in most cases written by men who had no knowledge of German and to whom German surnames were a mystery they could not fathom. They wrote down the names as they were pronounced to them, spelling them as they would spell English names. As a result there are hundreds of names that have such fantastic forms that they are unrecognizable. There are, however, some

Introduction xxi

exceptions among the ships’ officers. Thus, e. g., list 41 A is written in a beautiful German script, with all names spelled correctly. As was emphasized in the introduction to volume I, the so-called captains’ lists were not written by the captains. They considered such a menial task as preparing a list of their passengers beneath their dignity and would assign the task to one of the ship’s officers, the first or second mate. List 50 A is signed by Tho. Petterlo, Mett. We are not at all surprised that the spelling of the names of passengers on his ship is just as poor as the spelling of mett for mate.

To give only a few examples of how names were misunder- stood we may quote the following: One officer wrote Hendrick Sculps (p. 240). The clerk of the court at Philadelphia heard Henrich Schultz, (p. 243), which is no doubt correct. Another wrote Albert Uderstal (p. 591). The man himself signed Al- bert Otto Steg (p. 593). Still another put down the monstrous form Hans Jackop Struhgefier (p. 117). The man himself signed Hans Jacob Schreiber (p. 120). Again, we find the English looking name Jacob Rudolph Seymour (p. 301), but a glance at the next list shows that it should have been Jacob Riedesheimer (p. 302). Such wide divergences prove that the A lists must be used with great caution.

Sometimes the names are divided wrongly. One of the clerks wrote Johann William Engel (p. 549), a perfectly good German name, but the other two lists agree in the rarer name Johann Wilhelm Mengel (pp. 545, 547). One list gives the name Listen Walter (p. 106), the next shows that it was mis- understood for Lichtenwallner (p. iii). Such examples could be multiplied by the hundreds. They all show how difficult it is to make a reliable index of these contradictory forms.

If two lists agree they are generally followed, unless the form they present is inherently impossible. All German sur- names have meanings, although some names are so old or have such a peculiar dialectical form that their etymology escapes us. Still the large majority of surnames has been analyzed and is duly entered in one of the many books on German family names.

Some of the variant surnames were not merged under one form of the name, because these variants represent geograph- ical and dialectical differences. Thus, e. g., Muller, Moller and Miller are not to be regarded as identical. They represent dif-

xxii Pennsylvania German Pioneers

ferent forms of the name as used in different parts of Ger- many, Muller is South German, Moller is used in the central districts and Miller in northern Germany.

The same is true of many Christian names. Johann and Johannes are popularly treated as two different names. They are often given to two boys in the same family. Hence they are kept apart in the Index. Only the graphical variants Joh., Johan and Johann are treated as identical.

A few general directions may help to locate in the index some names that appear in the lists.

Some names ought to begin with K, but they are actually found under C. Such names as Korn and Kuhl are occasionally written Corn and Cool, by the English clerks. Other names that should begin with T are found sometimes under D, and vice versa. Also, names beginning properly with B are found occasionally under P, as Pens for Bentz. However, there are cross-references, which will facilitate the finding of the name in the index. The names beginning with Sch presented the great- est difficulties in arranging them for the index. The following rules were applied:

For Sh see Sch, as Shelling see Schelling.

For SI see Schl, as Slatter see Schlatter.

For Sm see Schm, as Smith see Schmidt.

For Sn see Schn, as Snyder see Schneyder.

For Sw see Schw, as Swartz see Schwartz.

A few words are sufficient to call attention to the Index of Christian Names. It was added in order to assist persons in understanding the meaning as well as the variant forms of German Christian names, as found in the lists. Some of the variant forms, such as Kunrad and Oldrich, show that in pop- ular speech many archaic forms survive. The etymology of the Christian names has been given wherever possible. Attention has also been called to the many saint names that are found among the Christian names.

With these introductory remarks it is hoped the indexes will prove to be a useful and sufficient key for the lists themselves.

to make the Captains return the names of all passengers, and record them, but where there are Citizens take no pay, for I think it is hard for any person going out of his State into an- other to be obliged to pay when he returns : The Law says all passengers from beyond Sea; but this Law was passed so early as the year Twenty nine, when it was Impossible to foresee the intercourse between State and State, or of People going down the Ohio, and coming by way of New Orleans to this City. It may fall into the hands of Some Officer that may take the ad- vantage of the Words of the Law, to the Injury of the Citizens.
