Mother is listed as Caroline Krohn. I see many ship records of a Walter traveling to Australia but do not know if it is him or not. On one tree there is a Johann born and died in Australia but was married in Germany. Walter was born in Griefswald, Germany. He was a sea captain. I have all of these records. My private email is ddld@ymail.com if you would like to contact me. I have been unable to solve the mystery so far. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
