Bernhard Früh, a single tailor, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 10 August 1766 aboard a ship under the command of Nikolaus Peter Pinkom.
Bernhard Früh is recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
It is not known in which colony Bernhard Früh settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Bernhard Früh came from the German region of Hessen.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Früh family among the Volga German colonies.
