[List 38 A, B, C] Mercury of London
Captain: William Wilson
From: Rotterdam
By Way of: Cowes
Arrival: Philadelphia, 29 May 1735
Fifty four Palatines and
Swiss, who with their families, made a total of one hundred seventy six persons.
Regarding the
history of this colony see History of the Goshenhoppen Reformed Charge, pp. 96-130. The leader of the colony
was the Rev. Maurice Goetschy, who died on his arrival in Philadelphia. His place was taken by his son, John Henry Goetschy. The business manager of
the colony was John Conrad Wirtz (Wuertz), the brother-in-law of
John Henry Goetschy. Wirtz was at first a schoolteacher, but from
1742-1763 officiated, in numerous German and Dutch Reformed churches, as
pastor.
