It is believed they departed from Rotterdamwith Captain Mason on the ship Neptune.
They arrived in SC August of 1752 on Captain Russell's ship, the Edenborough, from Philadelphia to Charles Town, SC (S.C. Gazette, issue 967, December 25, 1752 and the SC Provincial Council Journals, Vol. 21, part 2).
In his petition for bounty land in S.C., Simon Reitlehover claimed a wife and 5 children: Elizabeth 15, Mary Sibella 13, George 10, Simon 8, and Gaspar 4 years old.
Simon Reitlehover, as Simon Riberhover, was granted 350 acres of land on Cannons Creek. Newberry deeds reveal that the land grant was partitioned into several parts (Wicker to Youn, Newberry Deeds E-24). 88 acre part of the survey was conveyed to Mathias Wicker (Newberry DeedsE-454). Another 88 acre part of the survey was transferred in 1778 toJacob Frey
(Newberry Deeds E-455). In 1801, George Reitlehober sold 37 acre part of the survey to John Adam Wicker (Newberry Deeds E-457).
