Discussion & Documentation: 

Peter Scheidt, a miller (Müller), and his wife Maria are recorded on an appendix to the 1767 census of Katharinenstadt in Household No. 9 along with his stepchildren (Sabina Lepkrenk, age 17; Jakob Lepkrenk, age 12; Peter Lepkrenk, age 5).

It is not known in which colony either the Scheidt or Lepkrenk families settled.

The 1767 census records that Peter Scheidt came from the German village of Schedremich [?].

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