Discussion & Documentation

A list of debts held by Heinrich Conrad [sic] recorded in Wörlitz in 1766 indicates that he was born in Wörlitz.

Heinrich Konradi, a farmer, his wife Maria, and children (Maria, age 5¼; Leopoldina, age 1) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 9 June 1766 aboard an English barque named George under the command of Skipper Adam Bairnsfair.

Heinrich Conradi, his wife Maria, and daughter Maria Elisabeth are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that daughter Maria Elisabeth died en route.

They settled in the Volga German colony of Orlovskaya on 7 June 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 37.

In 1797, Heinrich Konradi moved from Orlovskaya to Boisroux.

The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Heinrich Konradi came from the German region of Dessau. The 1767 census records that Heinrich Konradi came from the German village of Wörlitz in the Dessau region.
