Discussion & Documentation: 

Johann Haussorg, a blacksmith, his wife Anna, and children (Georg, age 12; Maria, age 10; Johann, age 8) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 18 June 1766 aboard the ship Die Jungfer Friederika under the command of Skipper Christian Korsholm.

The surviving children (Georg Philipp, age 14; Johann, age 8) are recorded on the 1767 census of Warenburg in Household No 10 along with the Johann Hartmann Todt family [they had arrived in Oranienbaum together on the same ship]. The 1767 census does not record a relationship between the Hassorg and Todt families.

The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Johann Haussorg came from the German region of Nassau.
