Notes:

Johann Bernhard Becker born 25 Feb 1714 in Berghausen, Braunfels, Hesse, Germany and died there on 5 Feb 1760. On 26 Jun 1767 his widow Anna Maria and six of their children arrived in Kukkus, Samara, Russia as part of the original colonist group. In 1767 three of the male children had established their own household, Johann Adam, David and Balzar. Jacob and Wilhlem were living with their mother and new husband, Christian Herbel. Jacob and Wilhelm would eventually form their own family group, leaving a total of Five Becker households in Kukkus.
Baltasar, Jacob and Wilhelm were too young to have a child in 1769, David b. 1748 is old enough, however he had a different child in 1769. Johann Adam b. 1744 makes the most sense to be the father of Heinrich Konrad. Adam also has a son named Johann Adam.

Heinrich married Maria Hoffman. Maria was born in 1773. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Farmer from Berghausen, Braunfels, Germany.

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).

• Reference Number: 12234

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.

• Arrival: 26 Jun 1767, Kukkus, Samara, Russia

Notes:

On the Kuhlberg list as a widow from Braunfels. Her eldest son Balzer ended up in Kukkus. On the transport list #453 her name is Anna Maria Becker "a widow". Appears on the first settler list as the spouse of Johann Conrad Herbel. Apparently married between the transport and the date of the first census. Three of her children are in the Herbel household and the other three are in separate households of their own on the 1st Settler List. Neither her surname or her children's surname appear on the 1st Settler List. They are in Herbel's household by the process of elimination, as they do not appear elsewhere.
