Sebastian Krieb, a single tailor, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum aboard the Russian galliot Katharina Eleonora under the command of the Skipper Peter Röder.
Sebastian Krieb, a farmer, his wife Barbara, and son Johannes (age 1-week) are recorded on the 1767 census of Leichtling in Household No. 8. They had settled there on 14 May 1767.
Both the Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Sebastian Krieb came from the German region of Bamberg.
