• 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.

It would appear that Konrad was born after arriving in Russia

Stumpp has Gottfried Maser from Ortzberg(Ortenberg)/Stockheim/Buedingen

From the AHSGR website: Maser: said by the Kukkus FSL to be from Loehnfeld(?), Kurpfalz. Eleanor Sissell (2010) has proven the place is Lengfeld, which in modern times is in Hessen. She has the Maser family, prior to their coming to Lengfeld in church records of Switzerland. The children born in Kurpfalz were spelled Maaser while the FSL spells it Maser.

Also from the AHSGR website:Loehnfeld(?), Kurpfalz: Alton Sissell (2005) using an LDS film and a visit to the village, proved this is Lengfeld. It is said by the Kukkus FSL to be home to Hoefner, Maser, Schaefer, and maybe Houg? families. Alton Sissell (2005) in the same fashion as the earlier sentence proved this to be the place which the Maser/Maaser family left to go to Russia.

Son Johann does not appear in the transport list, he may have died in Oranienbaum, whereas Georg Wilhelm died in transport.

Name Johann Georg Heinrich, from Wehrdorf, Braunfels appears in Solms-Braunfels Archives asking to be allowed to leave for Volga Russia in 1766.

Werdorf churchbook shows Johann Georg Henrich born 31 Jan 1729 to Hans Kaspar Henrich and Anna Christina Zimmerman. It also shows Anna Elisabeth Rupp born 12 Mar 1729 to Johann Philip Rupp and Anna Elisabeth Dietz. However the entries seem to run out in 1732 and there is no marriage or children information for either to tie these two records together.

From AHSGR German Origins Project Web SIte: Werdorf, [Solms-]Braunfels [Principality] is some 5 miles N of Braunfels city, and said by the Kukkus FSL to be home to a Heinrich family. Confirmed, with information provided by Eric Hahn who was hired by Joan Knizek, taken from Werdorf Reformed Lutheran Church records and from Solms-Branunfels Castle civil records in Braunfels, as home to both this Heinrich and his Rupp wife, in Werdorf Reformed Lutheran Church records and in Solms-Branunfels Castle civil records in Braunfels..........Joan has birth dates and parents for this couple as well as birthdates for their children; prior to leaving Germany the family name was normally spelled Henrichs.

Johann married Anna Elisabeth Rupp on 21 Jan 1756 in Werdorf, Braunfels, Hesse, Germany. Anna (daughter of Johann Philip Rupp and Anna Elisabeth Dietz) was born on 12 Mar 1729 in Werdorf, Braunfels, Hesse, Germany. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
