Discussion & Documentation

[Johannes] Immanuel Schneider and his wife Anna arrived from Lübeck at the port in Oranienbaum on 17 July 1766 aboard a pink named Lev (Lion) under the command of Lieutenant Fyodor Fyodorov.

They settled in the Volga German colony of Krasnoyar on 20 July 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 19.

The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Immanuel Schneider was a stonemason from the German region of Laubach. The 1767 census records that he was a farmer from the German region of Laubach.

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