Description

Johann Friedrich Stoll, son of Johann Konrad Stoll, was born on 12 December 1735 in Adelshofen, a small community west of Heilbronn [Adelshofen was annexed to Eppingen in 1971-72]. He married in nearby Ittlingen to Maria Eva Schumacher, daughter of Ulrich & Anna Eva Schumacher, on 17 November 1758. Maria Eva had been born on 14 April 1732 in Ittlingen.

They had two children, each baptized in Ittlingen: (1) Johann Konrad (born 15 March 1760; baptized 17 March 1760; died 22 August 1760) and (2) Maria Margaretha (baptized in 1761).

Johann Friedrich Stoll, his wife & daughter, as well as his mother-in-law Anna Eva Schumacher immigrated to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein) departing from Altona, Duchy of Holstein, on 14 June 1762 under the leadership of Adam Saam. They arrived in the city of Flensburg, Duchy of Schleswig, on 19 June 1762. Johann Friedrich's wife died on 17 June 1763 and his mother-in-law on 14 June 1763. He remarried to Dorothea Elisabetha Rutz (born 1743). They lived in Denmark until 27 April 1765 when they immigrated to Russia.

During the journey to the Volga German colonies, his daughter Maria Margaretha died and a new baby was born - Eva Katharina. They arrived in the Volga German colony of Dönhof on 21 July 1766 and are recorded there on the 1767 Census in Household No. 16.

They are also recorded on the 1798 Census of Dönhof in Household No. Dh14.
