Widow Katharina Eberhardt and her son Johann (age 14½) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard the galliot named Kronshlot under the command of Skipper Ivan Kunakovskii.
Son Johann is recorded on the 1767 census of Brabander in Household No. 91 along with his sister Katharina and her husband Wilhelm Zimmer.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Katharina Eberhardt came from the Alsace region (along the French/German border).
