Anton Kuhl, his wife Anna, and daughters (Anna, age 6; Elisabeth, age 4) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard a galliot named Frau Catharina under the command of Skipper Johann Joachim Jenßen.
Anthon [sic] Kuhl, his wife Anna Margaretha, and daughters (Juliana, age 7; Elisabeth, age 5) are recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
It is not known in which colony they settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Anton Kuhl came from the German region of Darmstadt.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Kuhl family among the Volga German colonies.
