An article by Hermann Wäschke records the following:
Andreas Paris, a tenant (Mietsmann) from Quellendorf, with wife and two daughters.
Andreas Paris, a farmer, and his family arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 4 July 1766 aboard the English frigate Love & Unity under the command of Skipper Thomas Fairfax.
Andreas Paries, his wife Anna Sophia, and daughter Anna Sophia [age not recorded] are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Boisroux on 7 June 1767 and is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 40.
Andreas Paris [some translations use the spelling Bareis] and his family are recorded on the 1798 census of Boisroux in Household No. Bx21.
The 1767 census records that Andreas Paris came from the German village of Quellendorf in the Dessau region.
There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
