A history of the name Rickenbach/Riggenbach by Wener Hug (1992,
Basel, Switzerland) had this to say about Henry (first the German and
then the English translation.):
"Eine andere grosse Familie aus der Nachkommenschaft von Jacob
Rickenbach, namlich die von Heinrich Rickenbacker und Barbara Thommen,
wanderte ein in einem Brief auf Germantown am 4, November 1740: "Der
Heinrich Rickenbacher is auf Comastocke (Conestoga) gezogen. Zwey von
seinen 8 Kindern sind auf der See gestorben, und seine Frau heir inder
Statt." (vgl Leo Schelbert/Hedwig Rappolt, 'Alles ist ganz andersheir'
S. 122, Olten 1979)"
English translation: "Another large family of the descendants of
Jacob, name those of Heinrich Rickenbacher and Barbara Thommen,emigrated
in the year 1740 to America. Concerning this family, Hans GeorgGerster
wrote in a letter from Germantown on 4 Nov. 1740: "The Heinrich
Rickenbacher pulled in in a Conestoga wagon. Two of his 8 childrendied
at sea and his wife here in the city. (vgl. Leo Schelbert/Hedwig
Rappolt) 'Everything is different here'."

George W. Andrews says that they left Switzerland with 2420 Basel
pounds of property on which he was taxed 302 pounds. Heinrich (sic)
Rickenbacher arrived in Philadelphia on the ship Friendship on 23Sept.
1740 and signed the oath of allegiance to the government (Strassburger&
Hinke, 1934 4. 1, p 275) Faust & Brumbaugh (1925, p 127) have this tosay
about the family:

Lost his youngest children on the voyage and his wife at
Philadelphia and proceeded to Conestoga where he died before autumn
1748. His oldest daughter married Hans Kurtz and his two youngest had
Christen Gerber and Hans Gerber for guardians. His oldest son HansAdam
took a trip to Europe to collect and inheritance wheich hisgrandfather,
Adam Thommen, deceased in 1743, had left to his and his brothers and
sisters. He arrived in March 1749 but did not get the money until he
returned with the proper legal documents in 1750. Although he was a
harmless, even timid young man, he was both times forced to leave the
Canton after a very short stay and spent the intervening time inHolland
and Germany.
