Konrad Schuck, a carpenter, and his wife Maria arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 12 September 1766 aboard the English frigate Love & Unity under the command of Skipper Thomas Fairfax.
Conrad Schuck, his wife Maria Elisabeth, and newborn son Johann are recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that they all died in route.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Konrad Schuck came from the German region of Hessen.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Schuck family among the Volga German colonies.
