Johan Andreas Frey
Johan Andreas Frey was born about 1698 in Bad Rappenau, Duchy of Wurttemburg. On 2/3/1722 in Bischofsheim, the Duchy of Wurttemburg. Johan married Catharina Barbara Ritter b. 1703 in Pfalz, Lower Palatine (Germany).
Conditions in the lands which would become Germany forced these ethnic Germans out of their homes and on the dangerous path to America. Johan and family emigrated to Philadelphia PA aboard the ship Samuel, arriving on 8/17/1733. [Palatinate Immigration]
The Frey Family settled sometime before 4/1734 and the birth of daughter, Maria Margaretha, in Richmond Twp in what was then Lancaster Co PA. This area was the southern portion of the community named Allemangle, an ethnic German enclave.
The last record of John is from 1740 across the county line in Bucks Co PA where he reportedly became a British citizen. Johan died 1750 in Richmond Twp, Lancaster (now Berks) Co PA. And, Catherine died sometime later.
