MoorVV:
(aka Klutschi, Klutshi, Kljutschi, and

side of the Volga. Its
FSL is now published in Pleve, Einwanderung …, vol.III, pp.
155-174. According to this, the
first settlers were from the following places {italics indicate information
from the Kuhlberg list} with the family names shown here in parens.
Other spellings of family names, usually from later sources are in
square brackets. Verified origin
information is in red. Unfortunately
the clerk who made out the original FSL, with only one exception, recorded
only the countries, not the localities, from which the settlers came.
If there is more detailed origin information in the index, the family
name is underlined. The number with the family name is their FSL household
