Although he died enroute, Johannes and Anna Maria Heydt and their children emigrated from Bonfeld, via Rotterdam and London, headed for Kingston, New York. By the time the three generations of Heydts arrived in New York, only Maria Hayd's name was on the subscription list, as "head of the family, next to her step son Jost's. Johannes, about 60 years old, and his four young children, aged 2 - 10, must have died during trip.

Butcher,Lutheran church warden, civic leader and landowner in Bonfield, Germany.
The Hite (Heydt) family came to America in 1709 from Bonfeld, Germany, a small town about 40 miles southeast of Heidelberg. It was a Lutheran community, ruled by the Gemmingens, who had purchased the rights to it in 1476 from the Bonfelds, a noble family which had held possession for two hundred years.
Johannes Heydt, the earliest known ancestor, was listed as a civil warden, and a butcher. He was probably born about 1650, as his wife, Anna Magdalena, who died in 1695, was listed as being born about 1653. She was Catholic, but apparently was buried by the local Lutheran church, with the aid of a Catholic priest from Wimpfen, a nearby town.
The Heydt home was a two-story house and barn set on about 2 1/2 acres of land on which they had a quarter acre of grapes and a sizable garden. The rest was field and meadow.
Johannes and Anna Magdalena had eight children: Anna Maria, Maria Dorthea, Anna Catherine, Hans Joist, Johann Jeremias, Anna Barbara, Anna Rossina and a infant. Johannes married a second time to Anna Maria, the widow of Casper Schultze. They had four children: Anna Eva Catharina, Anna Maria, Anna Barbara and Johann Martinus.

MEMORIAL PHOTOS 0 FLOWERS 17 Anna Magdalena, first wife of Johannes, did die in Bonfield in 1695. Johannes remarried to Anna Maria, a widow, and they had several young children.
The Heydts left from Germany via the Netherlands, where they were diverted to England, which was trying to figure out what to do with the overwhelming tide of immigrants (who thought the Queen was going to give them passage and land).
When they boarded the ship in England for New York on the 15th of July, 1709, the party consisted of Johannes, Anna Maria, and their young children, plus their son Jost, his wife Anna Maria nee Merckle, and their baby.
When they got off the ship in New York at Nutter's Island, Maria "Hayd" was on the list as "head of the family" next to the name of her stepson Jost. Therefore it is assumed that Johannes, 60, and his four young children, ages 2-10, were lost at sea. Typhoid was rampant on the ship, and passengers were not allowed off in New York until their health improved.
The governor of New York was handling the immigrants and created lists. In June 1710 Jost, Anna Maria, and their daughter Maria Elizabeth were on a list. In August 1710 Johannes' wife/Jost's widow was listed. That was the last her name appeared, so it is unknown whether she died or remarried. Bio submitted by Ellen Miller

Join: Palatine Migration Project Discuss: PALATINE_MIGRATION Biography Johannes Heydt (b. 1654, d. 1710)
Johannes "Hans" Heydt was born August 30, 1654 in Kirchheim am Neckar, Wuerttemberg, and settled in the village of Bonfeld, near Bad Rappenau, District of Heilbronn, in the present-day State of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. [see map of Lower Palatinate showing Frankfurt, Worms and Bonfeld.] Hans was a butcher and church warden. He owned a two-story house and barn on about 2 1/2 acres of land which had a quarter-acre of grapes and a sizable garden.
All of the Palatine states (Kurpfalz) as well as the Duchy of Wuettemberg were officially Protestant (predominantly Lutheran, some Reformed) but there was a small Catholic minority and at this time the only religious conflict was within the different sects, not between them. Johannes Heyd's wife, Anna Magdalena, was a Catholic, but their children were baptized in the Lutheran Church in Heinsheim and Bonfeld.
The extremely severe winter of 1708-1709 made worse by the ravages of the French Army in the Rhineland during the War of Spanish Succession (1701-1714) forced tens of thousands of the local population to flee their homes. The British decided to allow as many as 8,000 to settle in New York.
In March 1709 Johannes and his second wife and four children, joined his son, Jost, and his family, and traveled as refugees from the Rhineland to England. They were transported from Rotterdam across the English Channel by the British Board of Trade to refugee camps south of London. In July they sailed as indentured Palatinate immigrants to "New Pfalz," now Kingston, New York.
Records at Governors Island in New York list "Maria Hayd" as head of family next to her stepson's name, "Johann Jost Hayd" — Johannes and his four young children had not survived the treacherous ocean voyage.
