I am looking for information on a Heinrich Dietrich Voth(b.1891)- and his family in Russia. He and his wife Anna Fote/Voth Voth came in 1924 on the S.S. Czar from Libeau into Canada, and settled down in Missouri/Kansas/Minnesota where they had 5 children before moving out to Kern County California.
Anna's Parents were Jacob Voth b. 1/22/1858 and Katherine Harder b.8/13/1857 both born in Russia. I cannot find Jacob's parents- their name could have been the 'Fote' version. I can go back to Katherine's parents' parents but get stuck at Jacob.
On Heinrich's side, I have his father as Dietrich Wilhelm b. 1862 son of Sara Schierling b.1821 and Heinrich Dietrich b.1832 son of Wilhelm Voth and Sarah Nikkel.
This is where I get stuck. Anyone have any info that can help? I know Anna and Henry were German Mennonite farmers in Russia, and have found some village census listing Voth (Fogt, Fote, Vogt, = family #249, I believe) but can't verify anything.
Thanks!
