Jahrhundert, page 271 Birth Source: 1816 Chortitza Colony Census (October, 1816) Death Source: 1880 Village Census of the Mennonite West Reserve, page 245 Notes: One record says that he was born 20 Feb 1807. However, his age is given as 4 in the 1808 Census and as 12 in the Oct 1816 Census, suggesting that he was born in 1804. His date of birth is Feb. 22, 1804, according to 1880 Village Census of the Mennonite West Reserve, edited by John Dyck and William Harms, p. 245. It is assumed that Johann is the son of Isaak Klassen. When Johann migrated to Manitoba in June 1876 aboard the S.S. Mississippi, his is listed with Aganetha aged 66, (#228146) and likely his second wife. Johann Klassen born ca. 1804 cannot be located in any Manitoba documents. One record says he died 6 Nov 1876.
