Daniel Struby, a single farmer, arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 12 September 1766 aboard an English frigate under the command of Skipper Adam Beerfeier.
Daniel Struby is recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that Andreas and daughters Barbara & Anna Marta died in route.
It is not known in which colony this Struby family settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Daniel Struby came from the German region of Schlesien [Silesia].
