Georg (Kukkus)*

Jakob Georg, a farmer, his wife Elisabeth, and children (Johann, age 20; Georg, age 18; Friedrich, age 10; Maria, age 3) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 21 July 1766 aboard a koff named Alette under the command of Skipper Wybe Hendricks.

Widow Elisabeth Georg and her children (Johannes, age 20; Johann Georg, age 19; Friedrich, age 11; Maria Catrina, age 5) are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that oldest son Johannes died en route.

Widow Elisabeth Georg remarried to colonist Johannes Reinhard. Johannes Reinhard, a farmer, his wife Elisabeth Katharina, children (Elisabeth, age 16; Anna Maria, age 13; Johannes, age 10), and [step-]children (Johann Georg, age 20; Friedrich [Georg], age 12; Maria Katharina [Georg], age 5) are recorded on the 1767 census of Kukkus in Household No. 34. They had arrived in Kukkus on 26 June 1767.

The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Jakob Georg came from the German region of Braunfels. The Kukkus website reports that he came from the German village of Allendorf in the Braunfels region.

This Georg family does not appear to have any surviving male descendants among the Volga German colonies.
