Ulitz*
Johann Friedrich Ulitz, a single barber (Friseur), arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 10 August 1766 aboard a ship under the command of Skipper Nikolaus Peter Pink.
Friedrich Uhlitz [sic] are recorded on the list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
He arrived in the Volga German colony of Nieder-Monjou on 3 August 1767 and is recorded in Household No. 54 of the appendix to the 1767 census of Nieder-Monjou. The following year he settled in the colony of Biberstein.
Both the Oranienbaum passenger list and the 1767 census record that Friedrich Ulitz came from the region of Berlin.
There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
