Sebastian Karl and his wife Anna 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.
Sebastian Carll [sic] and his [new] wife Maria Dorothea are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
