Nikolaus Lamock arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 16 August 1766 aboard a snow-brig named Prinz Carl (Prince Carl) under the command of Skipper Christopher Losser.
Nicolaus Lamock is recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Oranienbaum in 1767.
Nikolaus Lamoque, his wife Anna, and son Johann (age 2-weeks) are recorded on an appendix to the 1767 census of Katharinenstadt in Household No. 8 along with a note that they settled in the colony of Bettinger in 1768.
The 1767 census records that Nikolaus Lamoque came from the village of Lüttich in Belgium.
