Immigrant from Germany 1744

NOT A DIRECT ANCESTOR

Johan Jacob Klein is not a direct ancestor, and no relationship has been established. He apparently immigrated with his father Philip Wendel Kleinalong with Johannes Klein, whom we believe to be our ancestor, on the ship "Phoenix" in 1744, and all settled in Lehigh County, PA.


Philip Wendel Klein and his descendants are well documented in the history of Lehigh County. He is of particular interest to us because our Klein ancestors also came from Lehigh County, and we believe they descend from the Johannes Klein who arrived with Philip Wendel Klein on the ship "Phoenix" in 1744.
What we know of the children of Philip Wendel Klein suggests his sons were too young to be included in the list of mature males on ship. It is interesting that one of the immigrant men was a John Adam Klein.
Philip Wendel Klein settled in Weisenberg Twp., of what became Lehigh County.
