Nr 39 Ernst Friedrich Schneider, locksmith, son of the blacksmith Friedrick Schneider and his wife Johanna, nee Voelker; both are living. Born in Claus-Mutlen / Memel; evangelical lutheran confession; single, 29 years of age.

Emma Johanna Hermine Schweiger, daughter of the deceased business man-Carl Schweiger and his wife Johanna nee Smith. Born in Memel; evangelical lutheran confession; single 22 years of age.
