Johann Philipp Schott was born in 1771 to Johann Jakob Schott and Anna Margaretha (Becker) Schott. He is first listed in the 1775 Grimm census.

1775 Grimm Census ^[1]

Family # 143

Head of the Household Jakob Schott, age 35

Wife Margareta Schott, age 28

Child #1 Andreas Schott, age 8

Child #2 Johann Philipp Schott, age 3 years 6 months

Mother-in-law Louisa Birger [Berger?], age 46, should be Becker

Johann Philipp married his first wife Maria Elisabeth (Hess) Schott around 1796, and their first child was born the following year.

1798 Grimm Census ^[2]

Family # 32

Head of the Household Jakob Schott, age 59

Wife Anna Margareta Becker Schott, age 51

Child #1 Johann Philipp Schott, age 27

Wife of Child #1 Elizabeta Hess Schott, age 28

Grandchild #1 Maria Elizabeta Schott, age 1

Child #2 Johannes Schott, age 20

Child #3 Johann Heinrich Schott, age 14

Child #4 Anna Margareta Schott, age 18

Maria Elisabeth probably had only two more children: Nikolaus Schott, born in 1799, and Jakob Peter Schott, born in 1807. Whether she died due to complications of childbirth or a few years later has not yet been confirmed.

By 1815, Johann Philipp Schott had married his second wife, Anna Elisabeth, the widow Gomerscheimer, and the couple had their first child together. Note that also living with them in 1834 was Anna Elisabeth's son from her first marriage, Michael Gomersheimer.

1834 Grimm Census ^[3]

Family # 197

Head of the Household Philipp Schott, age 63

Wife Anna Elisabeth Schott, age 50, second wife

Child #1 Johann Nikolaus Schott, age 35, by first wife

Wife of Child #1 Maria Barbara Schott, age 27

Grandchild #1 Johann Jakob Schott, age 8

Child #2 Jakob Peter Schott, age 27, by first wife

Wife of Child #2 Elisabeth Schott, age 18

Child #4 Philipp Jakob Schott, age 15, by second wife

Child #5 Michael Gomersheimer, age 8 in 1834, stepson to Philipp Schott, to household #266

By 1857, he is no longer listed as the head of the household, nor as a member of the household. ^[4] He most likely passed away prior to that census being taken. Russians kept track of male Germans' births and deaths in their census records. Because his name is completely missing from the 1857 census, that suggests he died before 1850, at which time his death would have been noted in the male-only, interim census taken in 1850. Had he survived to 1857, he would have been 86 years old.
