Andreas Stellmann, a single man, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard the snow-brig named Christina under the command of Skipper Jacob Stappenberg.
He settled in the Volga German colony of Huck on 1 July 1767 and is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 26 along with his new wife Margaretha and her daughters: Anna Maria & Elisabeth Schmidt.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Andreas Stellmann was a cobbler while the 1767 census records that he was a craftsman (Handwerker).
Both the Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Andreas Stellmann came from the German region of Brandenburg.
There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
