• Residence: 1857, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH143

Notes:

We do not have definitive proof that the Anna Margaretha Weigandt born 1823 in Kukkus to Johannes Weigandt is the same person as the Anna Margaretha Weigandt born 1823 who married Johannes Reitz.However, circumstantially it makes sense. We have the same name, the same birth year, the same village and the continuity of that name and age through the 3 Kukkus censuses of 1834, 1850 and 1857.

Records from this time and place are simply incomplete. But based on what we know, it is most likely that Anna Margaretha Weigandt is the daughter of Johannes Weigandt. Perhaps eventually we will find records to confirm or to dispute that, but for now I am listing Anna Margaretha in the genealogy under Johannes Weigandt.

Conrad married Anna Margaret Heinrich between 1850 and 1855. Anna (daughter of Wilhelm Anton Heinrich and Eva Elisabeth Keil) was born in 1822 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia; died on 17 Oct 1896 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

• Residence: 1857, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH103
• Residence: 1857, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH103

Notes:

We strongly suspect that The Anna Margaretha Heinrich born 1822 and showing on the Kukkus 1834 census as the daughter of Wilhelm Anton Heinrich is the same person as the Anna Margaretha Heinrich born 1822 and showing on the Kukkus 1850 census as spouse of Johann Heinrich Krumm and also the same person as the Anna Margaretha Heinrich born 1822 and showing on the 1857 Kukkus census as the wife of Konrad Maser based on the following facts:

1) Joahnn Heinrich Krumm died 1849 and his widow Anna Margaretha is living in 1850 in household 87 with two Krumm children, Johannes and Christina.Konrad Maser, a widower, is living in HH 90. All of this per the 1850 Kukkus census.

2) In 1857 the Krumm children, Johannes and Christina are living in what was household 87 (called HH 100 in 1857) alone, aged 14 and 12. Anna Margaretha is living three Households away in HH 103 with Konrad Maser. In 1850, Konrad Maser lived in HH 90 as a widower. In 1857 HH 90 is relabeled as HH 103. In 1850 the widow and widower are living 3 households apart. In 1857 the children are still in the same Krumm household, but Anna has moved in with the widower in the Maser household.

3) The continuity of the same name, same birth year and same village on 3 consecutive censuses in Kukkus, 1834, 1850 and 1857 strongly suggests that all 3 entries refer to the same person.

Records from this time and place are simply incomplete. But based on what we know, it is most likely that Anna Margaretha is the daughter of Wilhelm Anton. Perhaps eventually we will find records to confirm or to dispute that, but for now I am listing Anna Margaretha in the genealogy under Wilhelm Anton Heinrich.

• Residence: 1857, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH62

Notes:

We strongly suspect that The Anna Margaretha Kukkus born 1800 is the daughter of Johann Philip Kukkus based on the following facts:

1) On the 1798 census their was only one Kukkus surnamed family in the Volga colonies. That was Johann Philip Kukkus of the village of Kukkus. That is the only family she could have come out of.

2) However, within that family, Johann Philip did have some teenage sons. Konrad age 19 in 1800 and Johannes age 16 in 1800. It is possible that one of them could have been the father. Then Johann Philip would be the grandfather.

But with that possibility in mind, i think that it is more likely that Anna Margaretha was the daughter of Johann Philip.

Records from this time and place are simply incomplete. But based on what we know, it is most likely that Anna Margaretha is the daughter of Johann Philip. Perhaps eventually we will find records to confirm or to dispute that, but for now I am listing Anna Margaretha in the genealogy under Johann Philip Kukkus.
