Karl Stein, a farmer, and his wife Charlotta arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 19 July 1766 aboard a ship named Die Zwei Gebrüder (The Two Brothers) under the command of Skipper Nicolaus Pinck.
Karl Ferdinand Stein, a miller (Müller), and his wife Charlotta are recorded on an appendix to the 1767 census of Boisroux in Household No. 15.
It is not known in which colony they settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Karl Stein came from the German village of Dresden in Saxony.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Stein family among the Volga German colonies.
