They arrived in Philadelphia 11 August 1732 on the ship "Samuel."
The Christian Frantz family settled in Lancaster, Pennsylvania on May 9, 1738. where Christian Frantz received a warrant of land from Thomas and Richard Penn for 200 acres on a mountain located two miles from Little Swatara Creek, but Christian never exercised his warrant as he died in the winter of 1738-39. An inventory of his estate March 27. 1739 indicated that he had no land and very little personal property. He was a member of the Church of the Brethren.
