Johann Adam Linck was a mason by trade. He came to Halifax in 1752 on the Sally. According to the return of divisions of Lunenburg in July 1754, he resided at Rudolf’s Division, lot F-6. The return of the division stated that he had a house and garden. He was also listed as a soldier. In 1754 he received a 30-acre lot at Centre, lot A-7 (Bell’s Register). In 1760 the lot at Centre was registered to J. Adam Linck but was listed as vacant. The Linck family had left the community by 1760.
They had the following children:

Johann Philip Heyson came to Nova Scotia on the Murdoch in 1751 with his parents. His wife Maria Magdalena Zwicker came to Nova Scotia on the Gale in 1752 with her parents. Philip Heyson independently appears in the records beginning in 1760 with the registry of 30-acre lots. He appears with Peter Zwicker [jr.]; they are listed as each owning a 30-acre lot between the land of Benjn Green and that of Henry Becker who owned Oakland nos. 12 and 13 which were the last two lots in the first Oakland range. On 3 December 1764 Philip Heison participated in the third 300-acre land lottery and received a lot at Fourth Division, F-5 (Bell's Register). The Lunenburg township grant of 30 June 1784 confirmed his ownership to 675 acres (DesBrisay, Mather Byles. History of theCounty of Lunenburg, p. 71). His land holdings were scattered throughout the villages of Mahone Bay, Clearland, Oakland and Indian Point.
Philip Heison appeared in the 1770 Nova Scotia census (1770 census, p. 5). His household consisted of six people: one man, one woman, three boys and one girl. He owned two oxen/bulls, two cows, two young neat cattle and two swine. His farm produced 10 bushels of rye, four bushels of pease [sic], 12 bushels of barley and four bushels of oats.
On 15 October 1798, Philip Heyson received £6 cash payment for repairs that he made to the Mushamush bridge (NSARM: MG 4, no. 93.).

Eva Margaretha Heison apparently remained in Europe since there is no indication of her being part of the family group on the Murdoch nor in any records at Halifax. Given that infants travelled free, it is also possible that she died at sea.
