Father of Bride Christoph Horhann/Hophann, a smith from Ochsenhausen, deceased at the time of his daughter's marriage
Eva Barbara and her husband Philip, a plowman or farmer, were Evangelical Lutherans. Her family suffered great economic losses while living in Württemberg. They were one of the first families to leave the area and immigrate to Denmark, hoping to provide a better life for their one-year-old daughter. The arrived in Flensburg on 17 July 1761 and took their oath of allegiance to Denmark on 01 August 1761.

While they lived in Denmark, they lived at two locations:
1 Rosenkrantz Hof in Colony F8, Christiansheide, in the district of Flensburg[4]
5 Pauli Hof in Colony F8, Christiansheide, in the district of Flensburg[4]
Alas, they were one of the families who found it impossible to farm the marshy wetlands where they lived in Denmark. On 24 April 1765 they requested to immigrate to Russia, eventually going to the Volga region, the Colony of Grimm with 57 other German Danes (Rus-14-6).[4]
Note: The spelling of their surname is all over the place. The Grimm census records refer to them as Dumler or Tumler, eventually settling on Tumler in later census records. In The Immigration of German Colonists to Denmark and Their Subsequent Emigration to Russia in the Years 1759-1766, the name is also spelled Domler.
Eva's husband Johann Philip Domler (Dumler) was most likely the older brother of Georg Domler (Dumler) who also immigrated to Denmark and then to Russia with his family.
The family is first documented as living in Grimm in the 1775 Grimm census.
