Hello - I have German relatives who arrived in Adelaide after a quick skip into NZ in 1844 with the surname SIXTUS and LANGE.      The 2 LANGE girls married into the DOHSE and OEHM families.    The 5 SIXTUS boys lived around Concordia, S.A., before returning to NZ sometime between 1853 and 1856.   Is there SKS who can answer this question for me please . . . ?  Ta.    I have trawled through the online newspapers of the day looking for passenger lists for vessels leaving Adelaide for NZ that may contain folk of the SIXTUS name, without any success.    The surname has sometimes been spelt SEXTUS and even SIXTERS.    Would anyone have come across SIXTUS ( or variants ) in any S.A. departing shipping over the year period ( 1853 to 1856 ) at all?   If anyone has information on these surnames, I would love to hear from you, as I really have nothing at all about the 12 years or so that these folk spent in Australia.   Thanks.   Beth Akld
