Johann Andreas Glück & Margaretha Bauer were married 12 June 1766 in St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Lübeck.
Andreas Glück, a farmer, his wife Margaretha, and daughter Margaretha (1-month-old) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 8 August 1766 aboard the galliot Anna Katharina under the command of Skipper Johann Joachim Janson.
Andreas Glück and his wife Margreta are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that wife Margreta died in route.
Andreas Glück, a miller (Müller), and his wife Christina settled in the Volga German colony of Nieder-Monjou on 3 August 1767. They are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 63.
The widow of an unnamed Glück from Ernestinendorf is recorded on the 1798 census of Orlovskaya in Household No. Or64. She is believed to be the widow of Andreas Glück because he had arrived in Oranienbaum along with several other families that settled in the colony of Ernestinendorf.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Andreas Glück came from the German region of Manebach. The 1767 census records that Andreas Glück came from the German region of Magdeburg.
