Individual Note:   From the History of Bucks County, Pennsylvania by William W. H. Davis published in 1905:

"The Schick family, Michael, Jacob and John William, arrived in the Lydia, Capt. John Randolph, landing October 10, 1747. They sailed from Rotterdam, the ship's passengers coming from the Palatinate; The name was variously spelled: Schick, Schack, Scheck, Scheik, Schuck and divers other ways, Michael and John were enrolled in the Association, 1775, but we do not know that they served in the field. Michael Schick and wife Margaret had a son Michael, born November 17, 1767, and two daughters Anna and Elizabeth, born January 26, 1770, and Sarah, May 3, 1781. John William and wife Margaret has a son, John Peter, born, 1768, and another son, also John, born March 30, 1770. They were probably all farmers, and we find none of them figuring outside their own occupation, except Michael, a trustee of the church he assistd to found."
