Nikolaus [Reichert] (age 20) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum in Russia on 19 July 1766 aboard a snow-brig named Christina under the command of Skipper Jacob Stappenberg along with this [step-]father Johann Humbert. [See Humbert Family.]
[Idt & Rauschenbach erroneously record that this is the Nikolaus Reichert arriving in Oranienbaum under Kuhlberg entry #5061.]
Nikolaus Reichert, a farmer, and his wife Anna Katharina are recorded on the 1767 census of Krasnoyar in Household No. 21 along with Anna Katharina's younger sister Anna Maria Elisabeth [surname not recorded] (age 8). They had arrived in Krasnoyar on 20 July 1767.
In 1797, Ludwig Reichert moved from Krasnoyar to Hummel.
The 1798 census of Krasnoyar in Household No. Ks009 records that Nikolaus Reichert is herding livestock in Nieder-Monjou.
The 1767 census records that Nikolaus Reichert came from the village of Büdingen in the region of Isenburg, and that his wife Anna Katharina is from the German village of Grünberg in the Darmstadt region.
