Thank you for writing. I¡¯m pretty sure, if my guy contracted he kept his word because he seems to have married the master¡¯s daughter.?
A professional genealogist searched in Pennsylvania and found nothing, but at the time he was working we didn¡¯t know the parents¡¯ names or the ship and arrival date. New information changes the picture.?

I don't know if any exist, but in my experience many people apprentice with out formal contacts.?? The only way I have found to reliably know of these contracts, is the newspaper where ads were placed with
the apprentice left without fulfilling the contract.

Dear Listers,
I have a hunch that my Alexander Klingmann, probably residing in Berks about 1745-1752, may have been apprenticed to Johannes Ehrenhardt in Bucks.?
Are any apprentice contracts or agreements ever found in Pennsylvania? (I found one I was looking for in North Carolina.)?
I can't find a group.io for Bucks genealogy.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Lila
