And those families are from Virginia but we don't have them researched that far back. This is the first time I've heard of this wave of immigration! I'll have to spend some time to see if they tie in.

My German ancestors came to either South Carolina or Pennsylvania. The SC branch came from the German Palantine. I'm not sure about the PA branches.
