Johann Georg Buhl, a farmer, and his wife Margaretha [Albert] arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard a pinque named Каргополь (Kargopol: a Russian City) under the command of Captain Lieutenant Moses Davydov along with his brother-in-law Philipp Albert (age 28).
Johannes Puhl, a farmer, and his wife Charlotte settled in the Volga German colony of Krasnoyar on 20 July 1767. They are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 53.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Johann Georg Buhl came from the German region of Wertneim [Wertheim?]. The 1767 census records that Johannes Puhl came from the German village of Wertheim.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Puhl family among the Volga German colonies.
