Notes for Michael Holt:
The Holt name in German is Hold.
From notes on Germanna: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~george/johnsgermnotes/germhs18.html
Michael Holt (Hold in German) came as a young bachelor and found a wife in Virginia. He was accompanied by his mother and step father (John Spade/Johannes Sp�th). They were from the village of Stetten am Heuchelberg, which is a bigger name than the village. There are four roads out of town, one to Gemmingen, one to Schwaigern, one to Zaberfeld, and one to Brackenheim. All four of these villages have been mentioned and none are more than a few miles away. Incidentally, descendants have sponsored some research, which has disclosed some technical errors in the "Before Germanna" account. Michael Holt's claim to being a member of the Second Colony is based on the lawsuit of Spotswood against him, and having land patented in 1726.

Notes for Anna Elizabeth Scheible:
Notes from Germanna Virginia: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~george/johnsgermnotes/germhs18.html
The Scheible family left no male heir in Virginia, so there are no English spellings of the name. The family came from the same small village as the Blankenbakers, Fleshmans, Schlucters, and the Thomases. Margaret James Squires, a major researcher of the emigrants from this village, thought the Scheibles might be related to the other families, but she found no conclusive proof. The Scheible family had five daughters, all of whom had the first name of Anna. Three of them were given the name Anna Maria but the first two died. Three daughters came to America in 1717 but the fate of only one, Anna Elisabetha, is known. She married Michael Holt.
Children of Michael Holt and Anna Scheible are:
ii. George Holt, born Abt. 1717; died Abt. 1797; married Maria Magdelena Pool.
iii. John Holt, born Abt. 1721 in Germanna, Virginia; died June 1802 in Orange County, North Carolina; married Mary Elizabeth Bobo.
iv. Michael II Holt, born May 06, 1723; died July 26, 1799; married Jean C. Lockhard.
Notes for Michael II Holt as posted by Bill Anderson:
Michael Holt II, an Anderson-related 5th great-granduncle, organized loyalist militiamen in Orange County to support Governor Martin. He was leading these men to Wilmington at the time of Moore's Creek Bridge Battle. Afterwards, he was arrested and held in Halifax. In May 1777, he and about 30 principal Tories were sent to a Philadelphia prison. Holt contrived to make interest with Congress. Release was granted to Holt and most native-born Americans (Symth in Hatch 1969:86). By 1780, he was home again and cooperated with local Whigs (Troxler 1999:86).

Notes for Thomas Appel, all information from http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~monticue/Apple_history.htm:
In 1749, when Thomas was about 52 years old, he and his son Johann "Adam" Appel, who was approximately 17 years old at the time, and a Johannes Appel, perhaps a brother to Thomas, or his father, migrated to Pennsylvania. No record of their having wives with them on this journey have been found and at this time and we are assuming that Maria Catharina Gross, Thomas' wife, had died before they immigrated. Thomas and Johann made the journey on the ship Ranier, which sailed from the ports of Hanau, Wirtenburg, Darmstaat, and Eisenberg, and landed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on September 26, 1749. Naturalization occurred on 14 September, 1761, Alsace Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. "Pennsylvania German Pioneers" by Strassburger and Hinke, Volume 1, page 413.
The Appel name was changed to Apple when they migrated to the United States; weather this was intentional, or an error, is not known. The family lived in the Philadelphia area for a time, (where they might have (not proven, but there is a good possibility they did) worked off an indenture of five to nine years that paid for their passage to the new country).
Sometime, between 1760 and 1770, Thomas Apple and Johann "Adam" his son migrated to Guilford County, North Carolina.

ii. Anna Appel, born December 13, 1725 in Hirzenhain, Hesse, Germany; died July 07, 1733 in Usenborn, Germany.
