Discussion & Documentation

Andreas Kornemann & Maria Stöber were married on 9 April 1766 in Roßlau.

Andreas Kornemann, his wife Maria, and daughter Maria Elisabeth [age not recorded] are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.

Perhaps the above referenced Andreas Kornemann is the one as the following:

Andreas Kornemann, a farmer, his wife Anna, and children (Justina, age 10¼; Christian, age 2¼) 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.

Widower Andreas Kornemann and daughter Justina (age 14) are recorded on the 1767 census of Kaneau in Household No. 38. They had settled in Kaneau on 7 June 1767.

Both the Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Andreas Kornemann came from the German region of Zerbst.

There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
