[Johann] Jakob Frick, his wife Anna, and daughter Sibilla (age 1½) arrived from Reval [Estonia] at the port of Oranienbaum aboard the pink Lopamink under the command of Lieutenant Kryukov.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Warenburg on 12 May 1767. Johann Jakob Frick is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 17 along with a new wife Elisabeth.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Jakob Frick was a hosier from the German region of Friedberg. The 1767 census records that he was a veternarian (Veterinär) from the German village of Rodheim near Friedberg.
