Margaretha Dulson

Margaretha Dulson was cited in the Neu-Kolonie censuses of 1850 and 1857 at the ages of 50 and 57, from which it can be concluded that she was born in 1800. She was probably the daughter of Georg Adam Dulson and was born after the 1798 census. Margaretha Dulson always appears as the mother of the children of Philipp Lederhos in all baptism records (Catholic church) of those children.

She died on September 18, 1883 at the age of 87 years, left her children Anton, Johannes, Peter, Heinrich and Philipp.

Franz, his wife Susanna and daughter Dorothea arrived on May 12, 1767, in Preuss, in Russia. In some records he is mentioned as a farmer while in others he is mentioned as a mason.
