Johann Michael, his wife and three children applied to leave Germany in 1736 and again in 1737 according to published passenger & immigration sources. The family left Germany in 1737 among the 180 Palatines that sailed from Amsterdam on the ship "William" via Dover, England with John Carter, Commander. The ship arrived in Philadelphia October 31, 1737, where the men took oaths to their new government.

Church records show the family settled in Lebanon Township of Lancaster County Pennsylvania. Tax records of 1771 show that Michael owned 160 acres, had two horses and three cattle. Michael's name appears on the record of the Lancaster County Pennsylvania Oaths Allegiance and he became a citizen at Philadelphia, August 14, 1763.

Barbara's surname on the marriage record is illegible and appears to be Lautanin or Lautens, daughter of Michael, a former soldier under the Duke of Wurtemberg. In Michael's will dated April 8, 1783, Barbara was not named, indicating she was deceased. Six children and the daughter's husbands were named in the will which was proved October 5, 1784 and recorded in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Michale died between April 8 and August 29, 1783.
