Johann Georg Schubert, a farmer, and his wife Anna Barbara arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 29 July 1766 aboard a ship named Apollo under the command of Skipper Friedrich Detloff Mörenberg.
Georg Schubert (age 42), a farmer, and his wife Maria Barbara (age 43) are recorded on the 1767 census of Pfeifer in Household No. 51 along with Maria Magdalena Wahler (age 12), daughter of the deceased Georg Wahler. They had arrived in Pfeifer on 20 August 1767. The 1767 census does not record a relationship between the Schubert and Wahler families. [See Wahler Family.]
Georg Schubert and his family are recorded on the 1798 census of Pfeifer in Household No. Pf12.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Johann Georg Schubert came from the German area of Franken (Franconia) and the 1767 census records that Georg Schubert came from the German region of Würzburg.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Schubert family among the Volga German colonies.
