Four of them settled in York County, Pennsylvania, and the fifth (Peter) was never heard of again after his arrival in Philadelphia in 1740. The four were originally named Hans Kaspar (1684-1760), Hans George (1701-1754), Jörg Heinrich (1704-1776), Johannes Balthasar (1706-1770), and their given names were anglicized as cited in the title.
