Schwengel
Heinrich Schwengel, a single blacksmith, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 18 June 1766 aboard the ship Mann und Frau under the command of Skipper Daniel Berg.
He settled in the Volga German colony of Warenburg on 12 May 1767 and is recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 15 along with the family of Konrad Östereich. The 1767 census does not record a relationship between the Schwengel and Östereich families.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Heinrich Schwengel came from the German region of Nassau.
