Is anyone else doing research on the RINGLE family?

I am seeking background information on my ggggg-grandfather, ANDRESS
RINGLE(sometimes spelled RINGEL or REINGLE). B. ca. 1700 in
Ludwigsburg, Wurttenberg, Germany. Emig. to America when he was 17. In
1746, purchased 50 acres of land in Bucks County, PA. Need to know
1)D.O.B.
2)What port did he sail from?
3)Where did he arrive in America?
4)Name of 2nd wife?

His first wife was Anna Elizabeth AHLGEYER (1709-1747) b. Hanover,
Germany. (Would like more background info on Anna Elizabeth, also.)
They had several children, including a dtr. named Catherine Margretha
who also died in 1747. One of their sons, MATTHIAS (Mathias) RINGLE,
(1742-1811) was my gggg-grandfather. During the Rev. War, he was a wagon
maker for Geo. Washington.

Thanks in advance for your help.
