The Honorable PATRICK GORDON, Esqr., Lt. Govr
Clement Plumsted, Esqr., Member of Council
Thomas Laurence, Esqr., Member of Council

"A list was presented of the Names of One hundred and six Palatines, who with their Families, making in all Two hundred and sixty - nine Persons, were imported here in the ship Britannia of London, Michael Franklyn, Mr. [Master], from Rotterdam, but last from Cowes, as by Clearance from that Port. The Master, being Examined, said he had no particular License for their Transportation. They were then called in, and having declared that their Intentions were to settle and live Peaceably in this Province, the several persons whose Names are subjoyned, did repeat and sign the Declaration inserted in the Minutes of the 21st September 1727 [the date of the declaration's origin] and likewise took and subscribed the Declaration of Fidelity and Abjuration."

Hans Lenhard Holtzapfel and his son Erasmus, from Michelfeld, Baden, were listed as male passengers above the age of 16. This is what they swore:
-
"I A B do solemnly & sincerely promise & declare that I will be true & faithful to King George the Second and do solemnly sincerely and truly Profess Testifie & Declare that I do from my Heart abhor, detest & renounce as impious & heretical that wicked Doctrine & Position that Princes Excommunicated or deprived by the Pope or any Authority of the See of Rome may be deposed or murthered by their Subjects or any other whatsoever.

-
"And I do make this Recognition Acknowledgement Renunciation & Promise heartily willingly & truly."
-end of oath
-
King George 'the Second' ruled Great Britain and Ireland from 1727 to 1760. This oath appears to be trying to weed out Jacobite supporters of the Stuart pretenders to the British throne as much as former subjects of foreign princes. Rhinelanders like the Holtzapfels probably did not know who 'Prince' James Francis Edward Stuart (James III and VIII) was. The wording of this oath shows how much the Hanoverians hated and feared him.
