Destein*

Georg Destein (age 23), a single farmer, is recorded on a list of colonists dated 23 September 1765 who were gathering in the town of Worms.

Georg Destein, a farmer, settled in the Volga German colony of Schuck on 18 July 1766. He and his [new] wife Anna Maria are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 17.

The 1765 Worms list records that Georg Destein came from the German village of Lamperter Hütte [?]. The 1767 census records that Georg Destein came from the German village of Laudenbach [?] in the Kurpfalz region.

There are no known surviving male lines of this Destein family among the Volga German colonies.
