ImmigrationAbt 1700Peter Rucker immigrated from England to Virginia, British Colonial America, Abt 1700. Various unproven stories exist concerning the origin of Peter Rucker in America, most involving him surviving the sinking of a ship. R. A. Brock’s, Huguenot Emigration to Virginia and Settlement at Manakin-Town, Richmond, VA, 1886, p.49-50 had the following: “At a Council held at the hon’ble Mr. Auditor Byrd’s 14th day of Nov. 1700,” there is an accounting of the events of that year including: “ . . . carryed [sic] up to Monocantown [sic] about 120 [French Protestant] refugees, of whom six are dead and about 20 gone away, some from libertinage and lazinesse [sic] and some for want of bread . . . Besides ye loss they suffered at James Town by ye sinking of their sloop, where they had their goods lost and spoiled to yea value of 300 pounds, and ye sicknesse [sic] they have laid under at ye falls [now Richmond] these four months . . .”. There is no evidence that Peter was among this group of French Protestants, but also there is none to dispute it. Peter was naturalized in 1704, and the current law required immigrants to live in the country at least 4 years before they could be naturalized, so Peter would have arrived by 1700.4

Event-Misc26 Apr 1704He was mentioned in the patent of William Lowry as having land on 26 Apr 1704 in Essex County, Virginia.6
