Anton Sazius, a single painter, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 22 July 1766 aboard the galliot named Der Junge Mattias under the command of Skipper Johann Gottfried Selander.

He settled in the Volga German colony of Dehler on 26 June 1767 and is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 54.

The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Anton Sazius came from the German region of Mainz.

There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
