Their ancestors were French Huguenots leaving France sometime during the year sixteen hundred, before the revoking of the Edict of Nantes - some going to England and some to Germany.
Wilhelm and Paulina Barringer (Behringer) had six children: John Paul, Mathias, George Henry, Annie Maria, Catherine and Dolly.
John Paul, the oldest son, was born 4 June 1721, in the Duchy of Württemberg, Germany. He was the first Barringer to come to America. He arrived 30 Sept 1743. Within a year, he married Ann Eliza Eisman. After five years he sent to Germany for his parents, brothers and sisters.
Wilhelm and Paulina were getting old, but they decided to make the trip to America. The voyage from Hamburg to Philadelphia took about four week. On the way both parents got sick and died; they were buried at sea. The ship "Palena", with John Brown as Master, landed at Philadelphia on 16 September 1748.
Mathias was now in charge of the party. They had to wait in Philadelphia, with some friends, for John Paul to send for them and take them to North Carolina. Mathias lived with his brother on Dutch Buffalo Creek for a number of years. His sisters married and established their own homes. After Mathias learned to drill soldiers, John Paul organized a company of Royal Militia and made him the Lieutenant.If you have additional photos or information on the Barrigner / Beringer Family, please contact me.
