There are two Uhlmann families that arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 9 June 1766 aboard the ship Die Jungfer Friederika under the command of Skipper Hans Christian Korsholm. Their relationship to each other, if any, needs further research.
(1) Elias Uhlmann, a farmer, his wife Elisabeth, and children (Johann [Ludwig], age 22; Jakob, age 20; Magdalena, age 17¼; Anna, age 14; Eva, age 5¼) arrived in Oranienbaum.
Son Ludwig Uhlmann, a farmer, and his [new] wife Katharina are recorded on the 1767 census of Preuss in Household No. 11 along with two stepsons (Balthasar Wolf, age 19; Antoni Wolf, age 12).
Son Jakob Uhlmann, a farmer, and his new wife Susanna are recorded on the 1767 census of Preuss in Household No. 35.
Jakob Uhlmann and his family are recorded on the 1798 census of Preuss in Household No. Ps30.
Jakob Uhlmann and his family are recorded on the 1811 census of Preuss in Household No. 30 along with a note that Jakob and his sons (Martin & Anton) relocated to the colony of Dehler in 1800.
The death of Jakob Uhlmann in 1810 is recorded on the 1811 census of Dehler in Household No. 34.
Anton Uhlmann, son of Jakob Uhlmann, and his son Jakob are recorded on the 1811 census of Dehler in Household No. 34 along with a note that they relocated to the colony of Preuss in 1800.
Martin Uhlmann, son of Jakob Uhlmann, and his son Peter are recorded on the 1811 census of Dehler in Household No. 34 along with a note that they relocated to the colony of Mariental [year not recorded].
Martin Uhlmann is recorded on the 1834 census of Mariental in Household No. 220 along with a note that he relocated to the colony of Wittmann in 1822.
(2) Heinrich Uhlmann, a farmer, and his wife Marianna arrived in Oranienbaum.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Elias Uhlmann came from the German region of Engelheims. The 1767 census records that Ludwig & Jakob Uhlmann came from the German village of Berenbach in the Kurmainz region.
