  • 1 Sep 1733 Mr. Schorer wrote a letter to Urlsperger about 25 people he was escorting from to Augsburg. On the list was Paul Schweckhofer [Schwaighofer] a Weaver from Mittiersel [Mittersil] or Binfgan Pintzgau 48 Years old. Margaret Prin Wingerin [Prindlinger] his wife 40 Years old Mary his Daughter 6 Years. Thomas his Son 4 Years Ursula his Daughter 1 Year”.
  • 5 Sep 1733 it was recorded that on the list of those wanting to go to Georgia was “2. Paulus Schwaighofer, a Weaver about 43 Years of Age born in Mietosel [Mittersill] on the Mill Brook [Mühlbach] in the Valley of Pantzgau [Pintzgau] & his wife. 3. Margaretta Prindlinger with her 3 Children. 4. Maria Seven years. 5. Thomas 4 Years And 6. Ursula 1 year old.
  • It was also noted that “Paulus Schaghofer [Schwaighofer]” “No. 2 above expects his Brother in Law Viet Prindlinger, likewise his Friend Frantz Roff- mayes [Rossmeyer?] with 3 Children. His wife expects her Father Martin Prindlinger and her Sister Mary Prindlinger who is married to Gregori Graffmiller. He hath left 100 Guilders with Rupert Jackberger Röstermaster (footnote 125. Rostermeister is probably not a name, but a profession smelting-master, master-smelter). upon the mühlbach (footnote 126. Mühlbach is a few miles up the Salzach from Mittersill) in the Jurisdiction Mietersiller [Mittersill], to whom he hath sold his house and owes him these 100 Guilders remaining.”

No description of their journey has been found from 16 Nov 1733 until they arrived in Rotterdam on 27 Nov 1733. (Note: Frankfurt to Rotterdam on todays roads is about 460 km.)

  • 21 December 1733, the “Saltzburgers were bound by oath and had to promise with hand and mouth to be subject to the English government, their present authority, and, as subjects, to show obedience in their enjoyment of the rights and freedoms of the land. On this occasion the following ceremony took place: There appeared before us Captain Coram, deputy for the Trustees, and also the captain of our ship [Tobias Fry] and an English merchant [William Sale]. In their presence Commissioner von Reck gave a brief address in which he praised the good deeds done for the Saltzburgers and urged upon them gratitude to God and to their benefactors. After they had promised obedience with a loud yes, a proclamation, written in German, was read to them in the name of the Trustees, which told them about the freedoms and privileges they were to enjoy in this land and also about their duties. Hereafter the names of the Saltzburgers were written on the bottom of the proclamation. Then the Saltzburgers had to touch the paper and were asked whether they meant to honor all of this. They confirmed it with a yes and then shook the deputy’s [Coram’s] hand.”
