"Becker Colony"Germany? to Philadelphia

Family tradition says that our family (Empey or Emichen or variation) " came over with the "Becker Colony" and settled where the ball field is in Philadelphia. This is my 1st inquiry. Anyone heard of the term "Becker Colony"? Most thankful for any info/leads. We have a clock w/ wooden works supposedly tied to that era. This was an early immigration. Thank you once more. Barbara Empey Elmore.
