Hieronymus Lohn, a farmer, his wife Anna, and daughters (Anna, age 9; Elisabeth, age 7; Maria, age 1½) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 12 September 1766 aboard the English frigate Love & Unity under the command of Skipper Thomas Fairfax.
Hieronymus Lohn, his wife Anna Margar., and daughters (Anna Catharina, age 9; Anna Maria, age 7) are recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
It is not known in which colony this Lohn family settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Hieronymus Lohn came from the German region of Darmstadt.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Lohn family among the Volga German colonies.
