Hi there tis Bernice here.Am seeking info on one Eduard Hessler arrived "San Francisco,1863,Morton Bay, from Berlin .He was classed as a "Tishler,cabinet maker, joiner or carpenter. What I am hoping to find out is where he ended up once he arrived..and stepped of the ship. With other members of f/t that were immigrants,it was listed where they went once they arived in Aus.,but where does one go to find out his destiny?? I do know that he ended up in Sydney in the 1900's.And had an affair with one Sarah Woolfrey in Bourke (shock horrer.L.O.L).Hope someone can steer me in the right direction.Have a nice day.

Listers, I have received two emails this week which tell me that I have the KLEZ virus on my computer. The only problem is that for the past 8 weeks I have not used the pussims@cableone.net address and this is the address that appears to have sent the spurious emails. My understanding of how this virus works is not clear enough to begin to explain it to you but suffice to say, my email address for the past 8 weeks has been toetweaker@aol.com. Therefore, if any of you receive an email from pussims@cableone.net delete it immediately as it will not be from me but rather generated by the KLEZ virus on someone's computer. begging your indulgence on this matter, Beverly.

Hi all Received an email today that looked like a digest from this list. Thankfully, my anti virus took care of it but from all appearances, it looked just like a digest version. However, when I opened it, there was typing on the email, requesting we look at the attachment (very bad english!) Beware, if I got one, then there are others out there, take care.

Now, I bet that the email addres above didn't give a clue to our little "Pussims"! Hope you had a great holiday and graduation! Jenny PS Please tell me which way you wish to go on the A M L certificate

Hi Sue I hope you are still at that address!! A copy is going to SEQ Germans just in case! Have been going through old mail and came across several of yours, and one dated 2 April 2000 is very interesting! No laughing permitted here! Yes I am a hoarder! At that time I didn't have this stuff but there were a few bells ringing when I read this oldie, regarding your Stegemann and Zischke connections. Two of us have been working on the KERLIN name since October 2000 and I have here mention of the second marriage of your G/G/Aunt Auguste Zischke to Hermann Kerlin and most of the families from them. The file is in EXCEL and just that section is quite large. I can copy & paste it and probably delete the columns that my partner in crime (who is ill now) was doing, and I would be pleased to send it if you would like. In that email, you said spring had arrived - oh well, nothing like summer 2 years later! Kind regards Bev (Kerlin)

Hi Wendy Thanks for responding so quickly. Those others are STILL asleep Wendy (that is - all except our Jim). I'm muddling through this old stuff and thanking the good Lord for having printed most of it! A very kind person has given me a contact and when I've finished this ground work, I'll "go there". There have been so many imports/exports done that I had lost a few links and these are being found now. Will get back if I find anything interesting.

Hi Bev and All Others, Yes Bev, the MULLERs have been so quiet lately, but perhaps it's time to wake them up. I must have some cousins out there somewhere!! To try to sort out The GESLER/ GESSLERs I went through the QLD DDMs earlier this year. I now have the same birth date for Johanna Wilhelmine GESLER but a different father. 1 Christian Friedrich GESSLER, m. Wilhelmina DRAGER, d. 3 October 1929,            1 Marie GESSLER, b. ca. 1863       2 Ferdinand Christian William GESSLER, b. 8 March 1866, d. 1875       3 Johann Friedrich Wilhelm GESLER, b. 5 January 1869, m. Wilhelmine         Johanna OPPERMANN           1 Johanna Wilhelmine GESLER, b. 13 April 1896, m. Frederick MULLER, 4 October 1921           2 Philipp Alexander GESLER, b. 10 May 1897           3 Christian Alvin GESLER, b. 24 January 1900, m. Sarah Jane BUTLER, 11             August 1934       4 Wilhelmine GESSLER, b. 26 September 1871, m. Herman A ZIRBEL, 1899       5 Frederich Wilhelm GESSLER, b. 15 October 1875, d. 1883       6 William GESLER, b. 2 May 1883 In the Hamburg Shipping List for the 'Cesar Godeffroy' 1865 that lists Johann Gottfried MULLER  his wife, Christine Louise MULLER (nee BAHLOW), their children, Ernestina Wilhelmina Karolin GESSLER (nee MULLER), b. 1843, her husband, Wilhelm GESSLER, Wilhelmina Frederick Louise MULLER, b. 1845, August Johann Christian MULLER, b. 22 September 1846, Friedericke Christina Louise MULLER, b. 22 November 1848 and Johann Gottfried MULLER, b. ca. 1852 there is also a Christian and Wilhelmine GRSSLER aged 28 and 23 respectively and their daughter, Marie aged 2. All from Grunberg, Prussia. I would be interested to know if Wilhelm and Christian GESSLER are related. Sorry, but I haven't any information about Frederick MULLER or Anna Augusta Helene BEUTEL, but her descendants would be related to me.

Good morning All I have a dear friend who started the BADGE One-Name Society No 3419. During those cleanup operations (of which we shall not speak here), I came across the entry in an Admission Register of Mount Gravatt State School 1878 for a young Henry BADGE aged 10 years, Father - Labourer. He enrolled at the same time as three of our GIESEMANNs. The Bethania book does not appear to have the name and it doesn't have the GIESEMANNs either (though the web site does - thank you Russell). Can anyone help Mr Walter BADGE, and me, in finding anything about the Mt Gravatt settlements please? Repeating Henry's Father was a Labourer and August Giesemann was a Storekeeper. There are so many family books around, maybe some folk settled around Waterford and Logan Road and have books which mention these two families. We would be grateful for any help. Many thanks Bev

Hi All Wendy Thomas - are you there? I have a Johanna Wilhelmine GESLER born 13.04.1895 married to a Friedrich MÜLLER, son of Carl Friedrich Wilhelm M... and Amelia DIECKMANN. In your mail dated 28 Oct last you have a person of this name born 1896. Could they be one and the same, do you know? You also have Anna Augusta Helene BEUTEL married to her sibling Gustoff Hermann GESSLER. Would you happen to know anything about her family please Wendy?? Sorry about this, but there are soooo many BEUTEL/MÜLLER/etc out there - grrr! Bev
