The ship left Amsterdam and then stopped again in London before stopping in Philidelphia Pa..According to the ship's passenger list aboard the ship only Johnna Gorg Batz was aboard. But I was in contact with someone a few years ago that Found Johnna Georg and his parents. This person was working on Johnna Paul Betz wife's line. He list Andreas Batz/Betz I with his siblings.
