(Johann) Andreas KAPP
Regina Sophia MÜLLER |
WARNING: I have no proof that our subject is the Andreas KAP who made the crossing in 1732 on the Adventure, but two of his brothers made the crossing that year (and two others in 1737). The boys were orphaned in Jan 1731/2 when their mother died, their father having pre-deceased her, circumstances which could easily explain the boys' emigration and, in fact, could well have facilitated it by giving them the means to pay their exit fees and passage. The three eldest sons, including apparently Andrew, made the crossing in 1732, the two youngest sons made the crossing in 1737. |

The scholarship in this work is very poor, so I would not accept what it asserts without proof, and I obviously think it is wrong in connecting Seth Bunker to our subject. 8.
