Röhrig (Kutter)
Jakob Röhrig, a farmer, and his family arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard the snow-brig named Christina under the command of Skipper Jacob Stappenberg.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Kutter on 8 July 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 28.
In 1788, Jakob Röhrig and his family moved from Kutter to Beideck.
Both the Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Jakob Röhrig came from the German region of Isenburg.
