There are two Legler families from Weiler who immigrated to Russia:

The Beck/Laubhan family immigrated to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein). They departed from Altona, Duchy of Holstein, on 5 May 1761 under the leadership of Andreas Kirchhof and arrived in the city of Schleswig, Duchy of Schleswig, on 9 May 1761. They lived in Denmark until 12 January 1765 when they immigrated to Russia.

There are 3 Kutscher families that settled in Ernestinendorf.

All three of them settled in the Volga German colony of Ernestinendorf on 3 August 1767.

The first two, Johannes & Johann Georg, are not only cousins on their father's side, but their mothers were also sisters, and the grandmother on that side was also a Kutscher.

There are two Kuntzmann families that migrated from Weinheim to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein) and then on to Russia. Their relationship to each other, if any, needs further research.

(1) Johannes Kuntzmann was born on 19 June 1721 in Weinheim, today in Baden-Württemberg. He married there on 17 June 1748 to Eva Magdalena Wetzel. She had also been born in Weinheim on 16 January 1721.

They immigrated first to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein) arriving in Fridericia on 1 May 1760.

There are two Kromm families that settled in the Volga German colony of Yagodnaya Polyana. They both came from the village of Schotten, east of Giessen, but it has yet to be determined exactly how they are related to each other.
