In "German Migration to the Russian Volga (1764-1767), Origins and Destinations"[3], the entry for Michael Lutze and Elisabeth Kesisch and has a marriage date of 22 May 1766. Mai notes that Karl Stumpp, in "The emigration from Germany to Russia in the years 1763 to 1862"[4] has a marriage date of 1765. Both have the marriage in Roßlau.
It is unknown if Elisabeth and Susanna are the same or different individuals. When Michael left Lübeck, he was recorded with Elisabeth and his son Johann. When he arrived in Frank, he was recorded with wife, Susanna and son, Georg. Neither George nor Johann are in the 1798 census for Frank. It was not uncommon for settlers to marry en route and many settlers died en route. By 1798, the sons could also have migrated elsewhere.
