General Notes: Husband - Martin Thomas


A native of the Palatinate, Germany, he emigrated with his family to America in the year 1749, landing at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on the 30th of August that year, his father having preceded him several years. The ship "Crown," Michael James, master, in which they embarked, was heavily laden, having less than five hundred souls on board on its arrival out of over six hundred at leaving Rotterdam. The mortality on that crowded vessel was fearful, and it is hardly probable that the family of Martin Thomas entirely escaped. He located in what is now Lebanon township, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania.
