Do not confuse this line with the Amick family that emigrated about the same time on the Pink John and William. That family Amick is sometimes confused with ours on the Web. They came from the area of Alsace Lorraine, quit a way up the river Rhine. That family settled in parts of Pennsylvania and South Carolina. There is also an Emmick family that entered New York earlier and settle on the Hudson River. These families could only be very distantly related. Families descended from Henry and Nicholas are identified here.

"I can't tell you when our ancestors came from Europe to America, but they settled in Germantown, Philadelphia. The name at that time was Amick. Some of them called themselves Von Amick. Grand Dad (Henry) always referred to his ancestors as 'Low Dutch'".
Source: Maude Emmick History (written about 1960)1860-1870 "There were relatives who had moved to Indiana before Grand Dad (Henry). They spelled the name Emmick. They persuaded Grand Dad (Henry) that Emmick (does she mean Amick) was a Dutch corruption of the name, which had taken place during their sojourn in Germantown. They claimed that we were not Dutch but German from Frankfurt, Germany."
