Discussion & Documentation

Johann Christoph Pietsch, a farmer, settled in the Volga German colony of Schulz on 8 September 1766. He and his wife are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 11 along with orphan Ludwig Fries. The 1767 census does not record a relationship between the Pietsch and Fries families.

The 1767 census records that Johann Christoph Pietsch came from the German village of Recklingen in the Hannover region.
