Anton Winter (age 24), a tailor (Schneider), is recorded on the 1776 Katharinenstadt Grundbuch [Land Register] in Household No. 210 along with a note that he is living in the household of Friedrich Soltner. A further note records that he married elsewhere.
The 1776 Katharinenstadt Land Register records that Anton Winter came from the German village of Lutzberg Nieder Wusel [perhaps Nieder-Wöllstadt] in the Wetterau region.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Winter family among the Volga German colonies.
