Eighteenth Century Emigrants from Pfungstadt, Hessen-Darmstadt to Pennsylvania
The earliest arrival from this village appears to be Johann Nicolaus Crussman who arrived in 1718, and the last group appears on a ship in 1754. Several of these immigrants were founding members of the Lutheran congregations at Trappe, in Montgomery Co. and at St. Paul's (Blue) Church in Saucon, Northampton Co. (today Upper Saucon, Lehigh Co.). Some families included are Crossman, Erdman(n), Windemuth, etc. (58pp. index. Masthof Press, 2012.)
