Anna Katharina Schulz, widow of Johann Heinrich Schulz (a beer brewer (Bierbrauer) who had died during the journey from Oranienbaum to Saratov under the command of Oberlieutenant Dittmar), and his daughter Henrietta (age 15) are recorded on the 1767 census of Lauwe in Household No. 54. They had settled there on 5 September 1767.
The 1767 census records that Anna Katharina Schulz came from the German village of Goldberg in the region of Preußen (Prussia).
