Johann Christian Schlegel departed Amsterdam aboard the ship Bilander Townsend which went to Cowes on the Isle of Wight and then to the Colonies arriving in the port of Philadelphia October 5,1737. There was a Johann Christian Schlegel born in Crottendorf, Chemnitz, Sachsen Germany July 8, 1703 to Christian Schlegel and Magdalena Kunz. I seek information to confirm this Christian Schlegel as the proginator of our family. Wife: Catharina, Children: Catharine, Peter, Susannah, Christina, Jacob and Margaretha (two more born in Pa.)
