Let’s take a look, at the families, surrounding the ARNEY’s   VOLCK (Arrived in 1708 from Palatine, Germany) G1: Andreas VOLCK (1678-1747) & Anna Catharina MERCKEL (1680-1762) G2: Andreas VOLCK (1722-1790) & Maria Margaretha ROMIG (1722-1804) G3: Johann Heinrich “Henry” ARNEY, Sr. (1755-1830) & Maria Magdalena VOLCK (1755-1849)   SPAINHOUR (Arrive in 1740 from Switzerland) G1: Jacobus Wernhardt “Werner” SPAINHOUR (1719-1787) & [2nd Wife] Anna Elizabetha KRON (1730-1787) G2: Johann Heinrich SPAINHOUR (1762-1821) & Louisa DIETZ (1766-1855) G3: Andreas “Andrew” ARNEY (1789-1880) & Elizabeth SPAINHOUR (1793-1853)   KRON (Arrived in 1741 from Essenheim, Germany) G1: Lorentz KRON (1700-1753) & Anna Ursula BENDER (1703-1768) G2: Jacob ARNEY (????-1784) & [1st Wife] Anna Ursula KRON (1722-1761)   Notes: Andreas “Andrew” ARNEY was the son of Johann Heinrich “Henry” ARNEY, Sr. Johann Heinrich “Henry” ARNEY, Sr., was the son of Jacob ARNEY   Jacob ARNEY and Jacobus Wernhardt “Werner” SPAINHOUR married Sisters: Jacob ARNEY married Anna Ursula KRON (1722-1761) Jacobus Wernhardt “Werner” SPAINHOUR married Anna Elizabetha KRON (1730-1787)   Johann Heinrich “Henry” ARNEY, Sr. and Johann Jacob SPAINHOUR married Sisters: Johann Heinrich “Henry” ARNEY, Sr. married Maria Magdalena VOLCK (1755-1849) Johann Jacob SPAINHOUR (1750-1822) married Anna Catherina VOLCK (1763-1814)   It makes you wonder, with such a close connection between these 4 families, if perhaps our ARNEYs may have been from the same general area. The question to answer is when did our Arney’s come over? It clearly would have been between 1708-1741, but on what Ship?
