Hi Jenny and Lorrae The Log of Logs gives a description of the ship etc, also reference to Burke's Gunyah Grit & Gantry, one of the Qld Gazettes and a health record. From memory that was in Vol 2 (but don't quote me!!). Lorrae, I have bumped into a few Burke's through this author, grandson of one of the ex-crew members who married one of the passengers. It's meagre, but also copyright. Talk to me off list if you are interested because I'm not sure of your line of Bourke/Burkes.

Hi Sue, I am a little embarassed, I have not had contact with Jenny for many years till she rang me from Ipswich area, I live in Maryborough, she rang me with information about photo's and letters about my father's war years, he is intending to write a book. From that it got to out interest in our German ancestry and genealogy and her expression to research her Pieper and Berlin line. I do not have her phone or postal address and I am waiting on the post for her mail and address. If it was urgent my father in Brisbane may have her postal address but I think he would only have her father's Max Piepers address. A search in the electoral roll would find Jennifer Berlin. Sorry to delay this.

Hi sue This is a bit more of some notes I have made re the Rockhampton NITZ connection. You will notice that my research is directed towards the NITZ side of things rather than Strassburg. For many years I was led to believe that there was no connection between the Nitz family in Rockhampton area and our family. I was finally able to make a connection. Unfortunately those who insisted that there was no connection have all now passed on. I have not been able to establish any connection between the Strassburg family in Rockhampton and the one in the Marburg area. There are some who would like to claim a connection but until I have documentary proof I will not make any connection. My family history research has been neglected in the last twelve months but as I am now retired I hope to get myself going again. That is when we are not traveling in our caravan. We live in Brisbane (Aspley). Phone 3263 1126 if you wish to ring at any time. As I come across any more information I will send it to you. Regards. Alan THE STRASSBURG NITZ CONNECTION. Christian STRASSBURG, son of Johann George Friedrich STRASSBURG and Marie SCHÖNBECK, was born about 1820. Dorothea Sophia NITZ, daughter of Johann Christian NITZ and Dorothea Elizabeth Louise REISNER, was born about 1811. Christian STRASSBURG married Dorothea NITZ at Fergitz, in the Uckermark area of Brandenburg, Germany, in about 1838. Dorothea NITZ before this marriage had two known children, Christian Friedrich Michael, born about 1835, and Maria Dorothea Henriette NITZ, born on 3rd February 1838. Christian and Dorothea had the following children, Johanne, born about 1838 or 1839, Caroline, born about 1845, Wilhelm, born about 1847, and Johan Georg Friedrich born on 2nd May 1851. Christian and Dorothea STRASSBURG and their children traveled to Australia on the ship Johann Cesar arriving at Brisbane on 7th November 1863. The passenger list for this voyage shows the following. Passenger No. 44 Strassburg Christian, 43 years, Neuhof. 45 Strassburg Dorothea, 52 years, Neuhof. 46 Strassburg Maria, 25 years, Neuhof. 47 Strassburg, Johanne, 20 years, Neuhof. 48 Strassburg, Caroline, 18 years, Neuhof. 49 Strassburg, Wilhelm, 16 years, Neuhof. 50 Strassburg, Louise, 9 months, Neuhof. 51 Nitz, Christian, 28 years, Blankenburg. 52 Nitz, Emilie, 26 years, Blankenburg. 53 Nitz, Carl, 1 year, Blankenburg. There is a question regarding passenger No. 50, Louise. It is believed that she would have been the illegitimate daughter of one or other of the Strassburg girls. It has now been established that Christian Friedrich Michael NITZ married Emilie Auguste SCHULZ, the daughter of Friedrich SCHULZ of Seehausen, at Blankenburg, Germany, in 1862. Church records show that the mother of Christian NITZ was Dorothea Sophia NITZ. It would appear that Christian and Emilie had one child, Carl, before leaving Germany to emigrate to Australia. Emilie Auguste NITZ(SCHULZ) died on 19th July 1864. Christian NITZ later married Johanne RENNER at Rockhampton on 14th October 1871. They had the following children :- Helen Agnes, born 5th August 1872, (died 28th January 1874), Christina, born 12th January 1874, (died 22 April 1874), Frederick William, born 19th February 1875, Carl Wilhelm, born 27th March 1877, Albert Paul and Paul Harvey, born 25th September 1878, Emma Louisa, born 29th December 1880, Emil Oscar, born 25 May 1883, Wilhelm Frederick, born 11th December 1885. (Albert Paul NITZ died soon after birth and following his death the parents decided to change the name of the remaining twin, who was originally named Paul Harvey, to that of his deceased brother, Albert Paul. This became official in 1941 when it was changed by Deed Poll.) Carl Wilhelm NITZ married Florence Matilda BUTCHER on 14th October 1901. They had the following children :- Albert Edward and Carl William, born 10 November 1902, Florence Evelyn, born 4th November 1904, Frederick Christian, born 29 June 1906, Herbert James, born 11th November 1907, Claud Vincent, born 30th April 1909, Thelma Rita, born 21st July 1911. Albert Paul NITZ (Originally Paul Harvey) married Luise Wilhelmine Johanne GROSSKOPF on 2nd September 1908. They had the following children :- Winifred May, born 16th August 1909, Ernest Alfred, born 29th June 1911, August Charles, born 4th June 1913, Albert Paul, born 26th February 1917, Robert Harvey, born 31st May 1921, Stanley Herbert, born 2nd September 1923, Leo Clarence, born 11th May 1926. Emma Louisa NITZ married Samuel THOMASSON on 6th February 1907. Christian NITZ died on 9th December 1924 and was buried on 10th December 1924 at the Milman Cemetery near Rockhampton. Maria Dorothea Henriette NITZ (shown as STRASBURG on the ship passenger list) was born at Fergitz in the Uckermark region of Germany on 3rd February 1838. After arrival in Australia she married Christian HUNTS (or HANTZ) on 23rd November 1865. The records of this marriage are slightly misleading as Maria is recorded as Mary Ash STRASBURG and her husbands surname is recorded as HUNTS, but in other records as HANS or HANTZ. They had two children, Annie Caroline, born 26th August 1866, and Margareta Dorothy, born 31st July 1868. Christian HUNTS/HANS/ HANTZ died on 3rd April 1877. On 23rd March 1878 Marie HANTZ married Ferdinand TIEGS at Rockhampton, Queensland. They had one child, Emma, born on 28th April 1879, at Rockhampton. The birth record of this child shows the fathers surname as TIGGS and the birth is recorded under the name of TIGGS, not TIEGS which is correct. Ferdinand TIEGS arrived in Australia on board the Fritz Reuter in 1877. With him were his wife, Wilhelmina, and children Albert, Alricke, Friedrich,Bertha, and Franz. Wilhelmina died shortly after arrival on 13th January 1878. Emma TIGGS (TIEGS) married Joel (recorded as Joseph) PLUMB in Rockhampton on 1st May 1895. Emma and Joel had five children, John Joel Ferdinand (Joe), born 1896, George Sidney Charles, born 1899 or 1900, Josephine Myrtle, born 1902, Albert Bertram, and Joel. Josephine Myrtle married August James Henry BROWN on 29th December 1920. They had five children, James Henry, born 27th November 1921, Raymond George, born 10th November 1924, Myrtle Helen, born 27th October 1926, Moira Frances, born 3rd November 1930, Terence Edward, born 13th January 1931. James Henry BROWN married Jessie Margaret RUNCORN on 20th February 1948. They had three children, Susan Margaret, born 13th March 1952. Susan married Peter Stephen STENNING on 20th May 1972 and they have one child, Tegan Margaret, born 2nd July 1988. Rosalind Louise, born 20th June 1955. Rosalind married John JENKINS. There were no children of this marriage. Matthew James, born 1st July 1960. Matthew married Roshana MAY on 9th February 1991. They have two children, Zoe Mir, born 19th July 1996, Nathan James, born 15th March 1999. Alan & Shirley NITZ Brisbane, Australia.

Hi Paul and Rhondda Apologies for calling you Chris this morning - I was so pleased to get your mail that I didn't look past my nose!! This is what I have gathered to date on the families you mentioned. Please correct me if anything is amiss. John (Ward) QUINN, 40, and Eliza nee COLGAN, 30 - children as per your mail Maria, 21, died 19.02.1863 and I have her as a sibling of William, 24, who married Catherine RYAN 15.05.1865 Next couple are a bit 'funny' and some data was picked up from an unpublished manuscript (previously mentioned here I think) Bridget, 33, and William, 39, BYRNE with Edward, 20, BYRNE == William is supposed to have held land at Logan Reserve, while 'Bridget and Edward went to Palen Creek', when I don't know. The ages don't suggest Edward was a child. This comes from another reference. Land Orders were not issued for some of the individuals (Rev Paddy Dunne took up several in blocks, so they could have been included there), but there was an Order 62/1126 £72 for John, wife and 4 children (under 14 years). Also have that Mary QUINN married Philip BOLGER 13.09.1875 at Yatala. I think that's it so far. Thank you again.

Hi List, My cousin Jenny Berlin nee Pieper, is very interested in contacting other people also researching the Berlin's and Pieper's of the Marburg area. Jenny's mother was my auntie Thelma Bunning. Interesting the Pieper's moved into the old house of the Strassburg's and left remaining in the house were two old prints from Germany, I am intending to get copies of these, others may like to contact me for further information. I am also researching the Leschke's and the Grulke's.

Hi Lorrae, Have any of you checked the books 'Log of Logs' vols. 1, 2, 3, for the Erin-go-Bragh. These books will inform you as to any further logs or journals associated with the voyages of this and many more ships. There are often Surgeon's Journals, journals of the voyage written by passengers etc. Bit like a bible of ships journeys to Australia. Regards Jenny Jenny Myers Arcadia Vale NSW Australia

G'day Bev Just to add to information about passengers on the Erin-go-Bragh. My great-grandfather and his family arrived that year and settled in the Beenleigh-Yatala-Mt Stapylton area. He was John Ward Quinn from Tullamore, King's County (Offaly) married to Eliza (Colgan) from Clommore, Kings County (Offaly). Their children were William, Michael Joseph, Mary, Lawrence, Thomas, Elizabeth Agnes and John Albert. The last two were born in Australia. Eliza's parents were Michael Colgan and Mary Fitzgerald. Maria Colgan (sister of Eliza) and William Colgan (brother??? still looking)were also passengers. Another sister Bridget Colgan was married to a John Byrne (also passengers??) and settled in the same area? John Albert Quinn (my grandfather) married Clara Louise Humburg the daughter of Carl Henrich Humburg and Caroline Wilhelmine Fredrika Schmidt. Carl was born in Mayen, Prussia and Caroline in Gunterberg, Germany. There is a Quinn's Hill at Yatala and there was a slaughter yard in the same area which I believe was at one time owned by the Quinn family (John Ward Quinn was a butcher). We are still in the process of confirming this information. I believe the slaughter yard was sold to a the Christensen family. Hope this is of interest. Any information shared just makes it all a lot easier. Cheers Paul & Rhondda Smith
If you do, would you be able to kindly do a look-up for me? I am looking for the arrival of Sebastian SEEMANN and Rejina SEEMANN (nee KEMMER). I believe that they would have arrived in 1862 or the beginning of 1863. Thanks Werona California, USA
Hello again Lorrae Not really trouble, but finding the material is difficult. This was the nitty gritty of my whole plan - to get as much information in one place so that everyone can get easy access to it. To find any single piece of information was - still is - the 'needle in a haystack' routine. It took days for me to dig up confirmation of one mention in an unpublished manuscript! Once that was found, there was another quandary - the RYAN girl who married one of our BEETHAMs. So there I was, back at Hatton Vale, Forest Hill, Laidley etc with our GIESEMANNs. One of David's Aunts married Jens FREDERIKSEN and they had property at Tamborine - more tie-ups - the Irish took up land there too. Lorraine Stitt has helped me - she has been great, as have a few others on AUS-Qld and the Co. Offaly Lists. It's like "every little" helps. The local librarian has had a shock seeing the old girl digging around too. We even got down to the Archives last week! Bought some maps - the 20 chain to one inch ones - and have found most of the families who were living around our HARRISONs, along with lots of German folk's properties. Thanks for being interested Bev > Hi Bev > You still having trouble with the 'Erin-go-Bragh' passengers? > The book referrred to the ship (do not know > which trip, if more then one) as the 'bride ship' so I guess there were a > lot of unmarried females on board. > The Germans and the Irish are so well inter-married in the Lockyer I would > not be surprised to find that some-one's ancestor arrived on that ship. > > Does anyone have ancestors from any of the "Erin-go-Bragh" voyages?? > > Lorrae
