Reibert*
Johann Philipp Reibert married Maria Magdalena Treut [variously also recorded as Dreut & Draudt], daughter of Johann Joachim Treut & Anna Catharina Zimmer. She had been baptized 28 October 1732 in Ober-Mockstadt.
The baptism of a child to Johann Philipp Reibert & Maria Magdalena Dreut is recorded in the parish register of Ober-Mockstadt: Anna Margaretha, baptized 24 October 1752.
Johann Philipp Reibert died, and widow Maria Magdalena Reibert née Dreut remarried in Büdingen on 14 April 1766 to Johann Heinrich Raab, son of Luther [per Bonner] Anton [per Decker] Raab & Anna Elisabeth Reichard. He had been baptized in Düdelsheim on 29 May 1735.
Heinrich Raab, a farmer, his wife Magdalena, and [step-]daughter Margaretha [Reibert] arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 4 July 1766 aboard a packet-boat under the command of Midshipman Mankensey.
Heinrich Raab, a farmer, his wife Magdalena, and [step-]daughter Margaretha (age 16?) are recorded on the 1767 census of Balzer in Household No. 49.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Reibert family among the Volga German colonies.
