    1. Re: [AUS-SAGEN] HENNING Carl

    3. Thank you to Rhonda and Kylie for all the help with my HENNING research. It seems clear that there are some errors on BISA and some of the shipping lists which I will follow up in due course. For clarification for anyone who is searching this list in years to come, Carl Friedrich August HENNING was a son of Johann Friedrich HENNING (known as Friedrich), who traded as F Henning & Son in Morphett St. Friedrich arrived on the Pauline with his wife Wilhelmine Louise (maiden name TOURNEAU) in Dec 1849, together with 8 children. Carl was born c 1829 and was from Potsdam Prussia, as were the rest of the family. He doesnt appear on our family's list of children from this marriage, so he may have been born to a first wife of Friedrich, or he may just have been listed separately as he was already 21 years of age. (His naturalisation records indicate that he arrived in SA around the same time.) The most likely marriage for this Carl is to Louise KRAUSE on 8 Dec 1851 at Christ Church Adelaide, though no father's names were recorded. They appear to have had a number of children. There was at least one other Carl (or Charles) HENNIG in SA as well. He may have been from Lignitz, Silesia and possibly married a Johanna ? Helena (maiden name KOHLER). He was born in 1842 and arrived in 1848 on the ALFRED. Best wishes Fiona Fiona Harris Western Australia Researching HARRIS, FAIRFAX, WOOLAGHAN, WHITSED, FAIRWEATHER
