Palatine connection

Yes, I do. The Hunter Lists are a geneological record made in NY in the late 1700's. That list traces the family of Johann Heinrich Kantz, whose family came from the town of Isenburg in the Palatine area. The family is traced through three generations. I t is my feeling that one of his grandchildren is the father of our Henry Crans who married Catherine Storm. They had a child, Jacob Storm Crans who is George Washington's father. I visited the Jacob Storm Crans/Crance/Cronce area in Westfield, Pa. A road is named Cronce Brook Rd and a school district is named Cronce School District #7 exist on old maps. When the original Johann Heinrich arrived in the colonies, a road already exixted from New York to Trenton, NJ on the Delaware river. I wonder if one of the sons of Johann Heinrich or perhaps a brother of Johann Heinrich travelled the 60 miles to Trenton and is the grand grandparent of the NJ branch of the family. I hope to discover that link some day.
