Anna Maria Klitsch and her unnamed husband, a farmer, settled in the Volga German colony of Brabander on 7 September 1767. They are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 118 along with two daughters (Margaretha, age 18; Magdalena, age 12) and a note recording that their unnamed father had died on 7 September 1767.
The 1767 census records that Anna Maria Klitsch came from the German village of Langendorf in the Würzburg region.
