Magdalena Nasen, a single woman, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 11 August 1766 aboard the Russian galliot named Citadel under the command of Midshipman Gregory Bukharin.
She is recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
It is not known in which colony she settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Magdalena Nasen came from the German region of Erbach.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Nasen family among the Volga German colonies.
