Abraham and Anna Friesen

24. Abraham FRIESEN was born in 1773. He died in 1825. 

Spent his early years in Einlage Prussia but later moved to the southern areas of the Werder (Marienwerder). He came to Russia in 1818 and settled in Margenau, later moving to Sparrau Molotschna. (Another source indicates that he became a teacher, first in the village of Munsterberg, then Tiege, finally in Pastwa where he died.) At least two of his children, Peter and Abraham, moved to the Bergthal Colony. Peter was a son by Abraham's first wife, who's name is not known.
