Note

Note: In the 1814 Chortitza Colony Census he is listed in Kronsweide among the landless (B. H. Unruh, p. 280). In the Oct 1816 Census he is listed at Kronsweide #11 in the household of Julius Janzen (b. ca 1781) #199133. It is said that Peter rode to Russia on a white horse when he was seven or eight years old (Ketler, Agnes, 1995), but this cannot be true because the family immigrated to Russia in 1789, before Peter was born.
