Note: Peter Sawatsky was likely a grandson of Johann Sawatsky and Johanna Wiens of Rosenort GW, and a cousin of Johann Sawatsky (b. 4.4.1742) of Rosenthal (Russia). He was a late arrival of the first wave and was placed at Schönwiese in 1795 on a temporary basis. Peter Sawatsky later moved to Bergthal with his family.'
