Johannes Endters [sic], son of Johannes Endters & Anna Maria Fischer, was baptized on 17 May 1766 in the Lutheran Cathedral (Evangelische Kirche Dom) in Lübeck.
Johann[es] Enders, a farmer, his wife Anna, and children (Dorothea, age 22; Adam, age 18; Erik, age 8; Anna, age 8) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard a galliot named Concordia under the command of Skipper Jakob Bauert.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Krasnoyar on 20 July 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 74.
Adam Enders is recorded on the 1798 census of Krasnoyar in Household No. Ks074.
Heinrich Enders (age 21) is recorded on the 1798 census of Stahl am Karaman in Household No. Sk32. He is believed to be a son of Adam Enders. His death is recorded in 1830 on the 1834 census of Stahl am Karaman in Household No. 74, evidently without issue.
The 1767 census records that Johannes Enders came from the German village of Grünberg in the Darmstadt region.
