Hein (Jost-1)
Johann Christian Heine [sic] & Anna Elisabeth Zander were married on 16 April 1766 in Roßlau.
Christian Hein, a baker (Bäcker), and his wife Elisabeth arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard a galliot named Die Börse von Lübeck under the command of Skipper Martin Friedrich Markau.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Jost on 19 August 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 34.
The 1767 census records that Johann Christian Hein came from the German village of Kemberg in Sachsen (Saxony).
