Sometime between 1737 and 1738 Peter and "Milla" and their four children traveled north on the Rhine River and in Rotterdam, Netherlands, boarded the ship "Robert and Alice". On September 11, 1738, the family landed in Philadelphia. Their last port in Europe was Dover, England. The ship carried 320 passengers and was commanded by Master Walter Goodman.** Shortly after their arrival, the family located in East Hanover Twp., (near the Swatara Gap in the Blue Mountains) in Lancaster Co., (later Lebanon Co.) in circa 1750. This was during the French and Indian War. His house was made of block and was used by friends and neighbors as a place of protection from the indians. The building was designed with "musket" slots which enabled the occupants to fire their weapons without exposure to the enemy. At the beginning of the American Revolution, Peter demonstrated his loyalty by organizing, training, and outfitting a company of men to be attached to Col. Timothy Green's 11th Battalion (Flying Camp) of Lancaster Co., PA. Peter was commissioned a Lt. Col and received 60 stands of arms (180 total) as listed on a service record dated September 9, 1776. In March 1789, Letters of Administration in the estate of Peter Hedrick were granted to Catherine Hetrick and Christopher Enterline.

The German Palatines were early 18th-century emigrants from the Middle Rhine region of the Holy Roman Empire, including a minority from the Palatinate, by which the entire group was known. They immigrated to England as refugees and were both Protestant and Catholic farmers. Towards the end of the 17th century and into the 18th, the wealthy region was repeatedly invaded by French troops during the religious wars. They imposed continuous military requisitions, causing widespread devastation and famine. The winter of 1708 was notably cold, resulting in further hardships. The term "Poor Palatines" referred to some 13,000 Germans who emigrated to England between May and November 1709, seeking refuge. Their arrival in England, and the inability of the British Government to integrate them, caused a highly politicized debate over the merits of immigration. The English tried to settle them in England, Ireland and the North American colonies to strengthen their position abroad.
