My ancestor Johann Peter GERES and family arrived in America
on the ship 'Robert & Alice' on 24 Sep 1742 @ Philadelphia.
They left their European home in Horschbach, Palatinate,
with Johann Philip GERES, Peter's younger brother.
Their other brother, Johann Simon GERES, came to America
on the ship 'Samuel' on 27 Aug 1739 @ Philadelphia.
