• Immigration: 1748, Germany

Notes:

The original Christopher Royer, whose genealogical history follows, was born at Rhine Pfaltz, South Germany, where he was also married. Their issue was one daughter. In 1748, the parents, with their only child, embarked for America. During the first part of their voyage, his wife became greatly distressed and troubled. She said, "In America all is wild, and there are no churches nor preachers," but the captain of the ship assured her that there was no need of troubling herself, that there were churches everywhere in America, which afterwards proved to be true, for the first sermon her husband heard was under a shady white oak tree, where the city of Lancaster now stands, which was then a small village. After receiving this assurance, she became more calm, apparently, but there must have been deep-seated anxiety in her mind, for some time later she become sick and died. She was buried in a watery grave, "the ocean," leaving her infant daughter in the care of her bereaved husband. This made the remainder of the journey very sad and lonesome. In due time, they landed at Philadelphia, Pa. He came to the locality, where the city of Lancaster now stands. His little daughter grew to womanhood among friends and at Pine Grove, Schuylkill Co. ,Pa., she married Jacob Gungle. While living at Lancaster, he married his second wife. Miss Catharine Royer, of American birth and of the same name, but so far as known there was no relationship between them. Here his oldest son, Johan George, was born.
