Johannes parents were Hans Rudolph Leippe and Margaretha Muller. Johannes was baptised Aug 5 1696 in Reihen Germany and he died in either 1754 or 1756 in Manchester Township, York Co. Pennsylvania.

On Sept 18 1727 the William and Sarah arrived in Philadelphia with a colony of about 300Swiss-German immigrants. William Hill was the ship's commander. This colony wasof the Lugheran Reformed Faith. German reforms had begun coming to america in the late 1600's. Following the Thirty-Years was, much of Germany lay in ruins. Inthe early l700's the severe persecution of the Protestants by the Roman Catholic church caused the German reformed protestants to look for the New World and freedom from poverty and persecution. The ships records indicate the immigrants sailed from Rotterdam. Johannes Godfryt Leyb is listed on the ship log as the headof a family of four. Only the name of the head is listed. Possibly his father is listed erronously as Rudolff Beyl as this name appears elsewhere translated asRudolff Leyb.
