Hi Kerry, Thanks for the suggestion. We use your site regularly and find it a great resource. When you were off line recently, we thought it was a major catastrophe. The age of the Christian Ehrke is about 7 years off, but we will look into it further. Thanks again for your help Regards Noel & Del From: "Kerry Raymond" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date sent: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 21:16:18 +1000 Subject: Re: [SEQ-Germans] Christian Emke Send reply to: [email protected] [ Double-click this line for list subscription options ] > We are interested in information on Christian Emke.

That might be mistranscribed as EMKE. There is certainly a Christian EHRKE in the records, marrying in Brisbane in 1876, died in 1926 and buried in Bald Hills cemetery.
