Goldberg*
An article by Hermann Wäschke records the following:
Gottlieb Goldbert, a day laborer (Tagelöhner), with wife and son, from Jonitz in the district of Dessau, originally from Saxony.
Gottlieb Goldberg, a farmer, his wife Dorothea, and children (Louisa, age 4; Gottlieb, age 1) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 18 June 1766 aboard the ship Mann und Frau under the command of Skipper Daniel Berg.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Jost on 5 July 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 11.
The 1767 census records that Gottlieb Goldberg came from the German village of Sollschwitz in the region of Sachsen (Saxony).
There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
