It seems J. Adam and Maud (diminutive for Magdalene) never went to New York but settled by 1716 in Bohemia Manor, now Cecil Co. Maryland with one or more families from the 5th Party of Palatines.
Bohemia Manor is just across the Chesapeake from the mouth of the Susquehanna River. Adam apears in the Chester Co. (later Lancaster) tax lists of 1724, 1725 and 1726.
