Notes:

The 1783 birth year on the 1834 census and the surname chart appears to be in error. Her mother would have been 13 when she was born! The age on the 1798 census and the 1850 census is more like it. Perhaps the 1834 entry was a transcription error and that was then picked up in the surname chart.

Notes:

2 weeks old on 1767 census.

Description: Kukkus birth records include the following:
#31, 32. Twins Cath. Magd. [Catharina Magdalena] and Maria Charl. [Charlotta] Beker [Becker], born 13, baptized 20 November 1799.
Parents: Conrad Beker and Catharina Haase from the village Volskoye.
Godparents and witnesses: Joh. Horch, Magd. Beker, Thom. Heizenroeder, M. Charl. Fuchs.

HH 43 in 1798 - these are the parents
HH 42 contains Maria Charlotta Fuchs, a sponsor
HH 30 contains Thomas Hei..., another sponsor, married to Anna Margaretha Becker (my ancestors)
HH 31 has a Becker wife named Magdalena that I suspect is another sponsor

These sponsors might suggest that Maria Charlotta (Becker) Fuchs, Anna Margaretha (Becker) Hei..., and Wilhelm Becker were siblings of Johann Conrad Becker. We know from the 1811 Kukkus census HH43 that Konrad and Wilhelm were brothers. Most likely Anna Margaetha was the child on the 1767 1st settler list.

HH 24 in Stahl am Tarlyk has a Johannes Horch, but I don't see how he'd be connected. I suspect it must be some other Horch that perhaps had a Becker wife.

Notes:

Farmer from Berghausen, Braunfels, Germany. Son of the widow of Bernhardt Becker.

There are three Becker families on the Kukkus First Settlers List (David, Balthasar and Johann Adam). All three originate from Berghausen, Solms-Braunfels Principality, Hessen, Germany. From information in the Solms-Braunfels Archives we know that David is the son of Bernhardt Becker, but the other Beckers are not mentioned in that document. Birthdates for the three are 1743, 1745 and 1747.

Information from the Ortsfamilienbuch of Werdorf, Braunfels shows that the three above mentioned Kukkus immigrants are indeed all children of Johann Bernhard Becker. Unfortunately, the mothers name is not listed.

Name David Becker of Berghausen appears in Solms-Braunfels Archives as asking to emigrate to Volga Russia in 1766. It is also mentioned that he is the son of Bernhardt Becker. The other two Beckers are not mentioned in those archives. All three Becker families in Kukkus are from Berghausen, the same town in Braunfels. David and Balzer are in the same family group on the transport List. Johann Adam does not appear on the transport list (It is not complete).

Marquadt & Mai #344: David Becker from Berghausen in the area of Gräfenstein & Anna Maria Steckenmeister from Allendorff in the area of Gräfenstein, married 17 May 1766 in Friedburg.

1767 Kukkus First Settler List #31
Age 22, ref, farmer from Berghausen, Braunfels
Wife: Katharina Elisabeth 21
Daughter: Anna Margaretha 2 weeks

The wife of David Becker b. 1745-1748 is listed on four different documents as Margaretha (in 1766), Anna Margaretha (in 1767), as Katharina Elisabeth (in 1767) and is Margaretha in 1798 as the widow of David Becker. If the 1767 document was incorrect we could assume that Anna Margaretha was his only wife. Otherwise we would have to assume multiple wives to make sense of this. The church book of Werdorf identifies has wife as Anna Maria Steckenmesser of Allendorf. According to Marquadt & Mai #344: David Becker from Berghausen in the area of Gräfenstein & Anna Maria Steckenmeister from Allendorff in the area of Gräfenstein, married 17 May 1766 in Friedburg. For now we are assuming that Anna Maria and Anna Margaretha are the same person and that the listing of Katharina Elisabeth is a mistake.

To assume otherwise would imply the existence of 4 different wives, 2 named Margaretha, one Katharina Elisabeth and one named Anna Maria.

Other Events:

• Name: Bernhardt Becker
• Reference Number: 9253

Notes:

Griefenstein Ortsfamilienbuch shows Johann Bernhard Becker marrying in Berghausen 11 Aug 1737. There are no records after that showing children. Berghausen records show 3 different Johann Bernhards in this time period, one born 1712, one 1714 and one 1718. The marriage record in Griefenstein could be any of them.

The records in Berghausen, although matching on all children, do not list his wife's name.
