Regarding whether or not they came from Holland, I believe you will find that the Fahls, like many who were searching for freedom to worship as they chose, lived in different places before coming to America. If you will visit this site, Diedrich Fahl is listed as a passenger. Grace Fall Curtis' book also refers to this ship.

Some general research on the Palatines will give you some background on where they may have lived and why.
