Notes |
- Where or when this Anna Catherina (Schneider) Haner died is unknown, whether in Germany, In England, or on board ship. Living conditions were incredibly poor, and hundreds of emigrants died of sickness or malnutrition during the trip. We do not know why they decided to emigrate, in addition to the hard winter of 1708/1709 and unrest in the war-torn countryside. It is possible that they and perhaps 1 or 2 very young children started out in 1709 with the other Palatines, headed for Holland, then to London and eventually in 1710 to America. It is written that the Palatine emigrants traveled down the Rhine in an intrepid mood, even with bagpipes playing, ready for a great adventure. They had little real knowledge of where they were headed. Maps of the New World were not common even in advanced circles, and practically non-existent in the village schools of Hesse.
