Deilof
Peter Deilof evidently died after arriving in Russia. His widow, Katharina Magdalena remarried to Johann Anton Eschler, a farmer.
The combined Deilof / Eschler family settled in the Volga German colony of Kamenka on 28 April 1766 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 52.
Michael Deilov and his family are recorded on the 1834 census of Kamenka in Household No. 212 along with a note that they relocated to the colony of Hölzel [year not recorded].
The 1767 census does not record from where the Deilof family came.
