**Rupp incorrectly records this ship Robert and Alice as Robert and Oliver.
In Strassburger, Ralph Beaver, Pennsylvania German Pioneers, -
Vol. I-II (2). Norristown, Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania German
Society, 1934.
'....It was most likely this publication in the Colonial
Records that drew the attention of I. Daniel Rupp, the well-
known historian of Pennsylvania to the lists. At any rate, in
1856, he published a book, entitled A Collection of Thirty
Thousand Names of German, Swiss, Dutch, French and Other
Immigrants in Pennsylvania from 1727 to 1776, etc. It contained
the names of all the males of sixteen years and upwards, in the
body of the book, the children's names being given in an
appendix. In 1875 and later, other editions appeared, which
Rupp calls "carefully revised and much improved." The
improvement consisted in the fact that the names of the
children under sixteen years were inserted, in the case of each
ship, with which children are given, immediately under the
names of the adults. Rupp also added sixteen appendices and an
'Interpretation of the Baptismal Names.'
The headings were made up by Rupp from the Colonial Records, or
condensed from the actual headings as found on the lists. In
this attempt to condense many slips were made, only a few of
which need to be mentioned, by way of example. Occasionally he
omitted the name of the ship. Thus in No. 43, he states that
110 persons were imported in the brigantine Perth-amboy, which
should be, in the brigantine John, of Perth am-boy. In list 141,
he omits both the name of the ship as well as the captain, the
ship was Lydia and the captain John Randolph (See our No. 142).
More frequently he misreads the names of the ships. Richmond
and Elizabeth (No. 33) should be Richard and Elizabeth.
Virginus Grace (No. 46) should be Virtuous Grace. The name of
ship No. 58 should not be Nancy and Friendship, but Friendship;
while the name Nancy belongs to No. 59. The ship Bawley, No.
188, should be the ship Rawley, see our list, No. 191. Robert
and Oliver (No. 55) should be Robert and Alice. Instead of
Morton Star (No. 296) we should read Morning Star (see our
list, No. 301).'
