    3. Forgive me if this message appears twice but my address book has two addresses and I don't realise which one to use. I am looking for German connections with the following. Carl Fredrich OTTO (born about 1823 at Stakyoy) and his wife Dorothea Luise STRASSBURG (born about 1817 at Drense, Ukermark), came to Moreton Bay (Brisbane) with their two children, Wilhelmina Johanna Louisa who was 11 and Wilhelm Frederich August who was 10, on the 'Susanne Godeffroy' , berthing on 6th September, 1865. Wilhelm was born at Steiglitz, Angermunde. Carl Friedrich MULLER and his wife, Johanna Amalia SCHMIDT arrived with their two children, Ida Anna (5-1/2 years old) and Carl who was one month old on 9th February 1865 on the Beausite to Moreton Bay (Brisbane). Ida Anna was born at Sternhagen, Angermunde. Johan JORDAN (born approx 1808)and his wife, Christine BRANDENBURG (born approx 1865), with their children, Friederike (20), Marie (17), Gottfried (15), Friedrich (12) and Carl (9) arrived on 10th February 1866 on the 'Johan Cesar' also to Moreton Bay (Brisbane). Friederike was born at Ludzhul? (spelling - hard to read on certificate) in Brandenburg approx 1846. Herman Albert Adolph LOHDE, seemingly arrived somehow as I have no trace of his arrival. He was born approx 1839 in Grim, Brandenburg, having parents named Johann Lohde and Johanna Boust. He arrived in Australia approximately 1866 . These people all lived at Zillman's Waterholes in Brisbane until at least 1886 then the addresses became Zillmere. They all appear to have to come from the same area in Brandenburg. I would like to find some German history if anyone knows. I have the complete passenger lists of those three particular trips, so if anyone wants a lookup done I can do so. 'Beausite' - leaving Hamburg 23 Oct 1864 and arriving Moreton Bay 9 Feb 1865. 'Johan Cesar' leaving Hamburg 12 Oct 1865 and arriving Moreton Bay 10 February 1866. 'Susanne Godeffroy' leaving Hamburg 6 May, 1865 and arriving Moreton Bay 6 September 1865. Kind regards, Margaret
