====================================

Fronica was the daughter of Peter Schumacher and Sarah Hendricks. She was born about 1661, probably in Krefeld, which is now located in Germany. By 1685, Fronica's mother had died. Fronica's father took his family, consisting of son Peter and daughters Mary, Frances (Fronica) & Gertrude, to America. They sailed from London on "Francis & Dorothy" on 8: 14: 1685. The passenger list of that ship contains Peter Schumacher, son Peter, daughter Mary, cousin Sarah and daughters Frances & Gertrude. They arrived in 1685 and settled in Germantown, Pennsylvania.

The elder Peter had signed an agreement with Dirck Shipman of Krefeld before he left Germany, on August 16, 1685. It called for Peter to proceed to Pennsylvania and receive 200 acres from Herman Op den Graeff. He was to erect a dwelling on this land, which he apparently did. Around 1690, Fronica married Isaac VanBibber. It is known that while in Germantown, the VanBibber family became involved in a religious dispute. Around the same time, Isaac Jacob von Bebber moved with Reynier Herman von Burkelow to Cecil County, Maryland, the Bohemia Manor area. Perhaps the religious dispute is what caused the migration to Maryland. Some sources say they were married on May 28, 1690 in Maryland, it is possible that Fronca and Isaac were betrothed in Germantown, and they were married in Maryland after the VanBibber's move. Fronica and Isaac had three sons and three daughters. Fronica died about 1708, probaby in Cecil County, Maryland.
