Johann Jakob Schott was born around 1790 in Grimm, Saratov, Russia, to Andreas Schott and his wife Christina Bender Schott. He was the oldest of four documented boys for the couple.
According to the 1834 census, Johann Jakob married fellow Grimm resident Anna Margaretha Kimmel and the couple had six children. Also living with him was brother Johann Heinrich, born in 1808, his wife, and their two children. There is no mention of brother Johann Michael, so it's not clear if he passed away or if he moved to a different village.

Johann Jakob Schott passed away in 1854. Because of the timing of his death, it may have been due to the third cholera pandemic that swept across Russia from 1850-1860, killing more than 1 million Russian citizens.
