Johannes Winter, a potter (Töpfer), and his wife Cunigunda arrived from Reval [Estonia] at the port of Oranienbaum on 30 May 1766 aboard the pink Novaya Dvinka under the command of Lieutenant Ivan Perepechin.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Husaren on 17 February 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 28.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Johannes Winter came from the German region of Mainz while the 1767 census records that he came from the district of Aschaffenburg.
