Kaspar Müller, a single man, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 4 July 1766 aboard the ship Die Neue Freiheit von Bremen under the command of Skipper Steingrawer.
He settled in the Volga German colony of Laub on 12 July 1767 and is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 27 along with his uncle, Johann Martin Stürtz.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Kaspar Müller came from the German region of Württemberg.
