Would some kind person who has an Ancestry account please look up the name of Peter Diedrich/k AKA “Tetrick” TRAN? Other spellings of his name include TROAN or TROHN or TRAM or THRAM or THRAME or THROME or THROM or TRONE or THRON or THRONE or TRON born 1726 in Germany? I am curious to know if there is any record of him showing his parents' names. I do have his ship list info. He emigrated to America on the Ship Louisa in 1753. The ship last departed the port Cowes, England. Tetrick arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 3 Oct. 1753. He could not read or write and signed with an “X.” On the Ship his surname was TRAN and he was classified as a “foreigner.” In the German/Deutsche language there is no “TH” sound; therefore, the “H” may have been part of his surname yet not written down in the ship rosters. Phonetically the “H” may have been silent. Also, two descendants of his described Tetrick's ancestry as Scotch, however, they added that Tetrick was from Germany. I appreciate any suggestions given. I understand that writing to German churches would be helpful. I just don't know his place of origin exactly. Some TRAN or THRON families today live in Karlsruhe, Germany.
