The Frohocks evidently came to the colonies with the Parker family, with whom they settled in the vicinity of Newtown, Bucks Co., Pennsylvania. John Frohock, Sr's sister married Robert Parker, probably in England. He had at least 4 sons and one daughter. In Bucks County, Pa John Frohock, Jr., probably came to know Squire Boone and James Carter. Following the death of John Frohock, Sr. (1748 and Thomas Parker (1742), many of their kinsmen left Pennsylvania for the newly opened lands to the southward. The younger John Frohock acted as an associate of his uncle Hugh Parker, a wealthy merchant of Prince Georges (later Frederick) County, Maryland, and a key figure in the trading activities of the newly organized Ohio Company. After Hugh Parker's death in 1751, the Frohocks (John, Thomas and William) and several of the Parkers, including Robert and Thomas, removed to east-central North Carolina, where they acquired land in Northampton, Edgecombe, Halifax and Granville counties. There they became closely associated with Alexander and Henry Eustace McCulloh, John Edwards, and James McManus. Hugh Frohock, the younger brother left for British East Florida and Thomas, a Loyalist, returned to England at the onset of the Revolution. John Frohock, Jr. moved to Rowan County in 1759/60 and probably established his residence in the town of Salisbury. Before the end of 1762, Frohock owned at least six thousand acres of land in N.C. including six grist or saw mills, a town lot in Halifax and lots in Salisbury. He died sometime around 1768.
