Good afternoon, My name is Jill Jackson and I have joined this list because I have three German Ancestors in my families. Two on my side and one on my Husbands side. As my Mother and Father are now dead I have no one close to ask these questions. I have found in some of my Mothers papers what I though was a Birth Certificate of my Fathers Mother. I have now found out that it is a marriage certificate of what seems to be my Grandmothers parents.  As I do not read German, and the little German I learnt at school has gone. I wonder if there is anyone here on this list that could help me with this document. Grandmother's name was Catherine Sellers, this is anglicised as far as I can work out to be Katerina Zeller or Zella, father Philipp Zoller, Mother Anna Maria Franziska Kramer. They seem to have held this ceremony at St Peter and St Paul Cathedral in Eltville. My other German Ancestor was my GGrandfather on Mothers side, he came into Australia in the 1850's from New Jersey in the USA to the Gold fields, then sailed to Victoria to work on the Victorian Gold Fields where he did by falling down a gold mine. I have many details of his activities in Victoria. My Husband's German Ancestor was Hugo Seidel; he came into NSW before 1900's. It was in NSW that he met a 3rd generation Australian girl married raised a family. He died by accident in 1921 Sydney. Is there any one on this list who has a connection to these three families? If some one can help me with the Translation of the Marriage Certificate, I would be grateful and delighted. Jill Jackson
