Notes
Birth
Ancestry.com OneWorld Tree has birth dates of 1710 and 1715 for both Benjamin and his brother Daniel. The immigration information indicates that their father, Heinrich, came with his son Benjamin, "wife and child." Is it possible that Benjamin was born in 1710 and was considered an adult at 19 years of age and so was names among the men passengers? In that case, Daniel was the one born in 1715 and, at 14 years of age at immigration, was considered a child and not named.However, both John and [Rev] Henry appear to have been born before their parents left Germany, also.
