Their eldest child, Rose Eva Kirchner (1/19/1898-10/19/1981) was my great grandmother. She died when I was 5, so I don't remember her very well. According to my mother, she was adopted. In any case, she married George Thisel Deering and had 5 children. The eldest was my grandfather George William Deering, who had 7 children. His middle child is my mother, Kathleen Rose Deering Neville. I have more information that I would be glad to share, and would appreciate the same in return.

I found it while researching the FARWICK family of which my husband is a descendant. If I am correct you and he would be 2nd cousins. You say your grandmother was Marie KARNBROCK and she married Richard Elmer FARWICK. His father, Theodore, and my husband's grandmother were brother and sister. I would be very interested in communicating with you via e-mail, and/or anyone else who has an interest in this family. If you have not yet made the KLAUSING connection, it is that the mother of Richard Elmer FARWICK was Emma KLAUSING. I think the Frank KLAUSING you mentioned who died 8-14-1961 was a brother of Emma. I am definitely interested in furthering my information on the descendants of Richard and Marie. I would also like to know if you have any information on Richard's sister, NORMA FARWICK.

The Webmaster Klaus Struve has posted the names and some details on 68,800 individuals, with perhaps 60,000 that he believes truly emigrated. I checked on the RootDigger Web site's emigration section [ http://www.rootdigger.de/Emi.htm ] under the letter B. There is an interesting entry with that name. Bluehdorn, Johann Hinrich * 1824 sof Johann Hinrich ¥Anna Christina Dorothea née Hoyer. He emigrated to America, allegedly, in the 1850 ' ies. USA The name of the emigrant and his father match what you have, and the 1824 birth year is in the range you have for the younger man. Also emigration in the 1850s matches -- although this individual allegedly went to America, not Australia. And the mother's name does not match. Of course this could be a different person! But at least it is something to follow up on. You can write to Klaus at the email address posted on his site. He is a very fine genealogist and often can help further.

I am seeking information about my ancestor, Johann Heinrich BLUHDORN, who was my 2nd-great grandfather. The information that I have is scant but here it is -- * NAME: - I have copies of Australian records where his name is stated as: "Heinrich BLUHDORN" (his shipping record referred to below under my heading "Emigration", and a deserter's notice). However, when he married Catherine HOLLINGSWORTH in 1856 in Sydney, his name is stated as "Johann Heinrich BLUHDORN"; and on subsequent documentation such as the birth records for his children and his death certificate. * DATE OF BIRTH:- my research tells me he was probably born somewhere between 1815 and 1831 * WHERE BORN:- some of the information provided by him when reporting the births of his children state "HAMBURG, Germany"; but one certificate shows "SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN, Denmark" * FATHER'S NAME:- documentation I have about him says that his father's name was the same as his * MOTHER'S NAME:- all that I have is her first name: HELENA * EDUCATION:- it would seem that when he came to Australia he could not write since most documentation that I have is signed with his mark * EMIGRATION:- he sailed from the port of London, England on 1 September 1855 aboard "Calloe", a cargo ship; it arrived in Sydney, NSW on 24 December 1855. I have a copy of the shipping record for the arrival of "Calloe": a "ship of apenrade, T.W. Bruhn Master, Burthen 667 tons"; and, the nationality of all crew is stated as DENMARK. Heinrich is listed as a member of the crew, a "KOOK" (sic); and, his age is noted as 24 -- this is an age I am inclined to believe, which would make his birth year about 1831 And that is it! All that I know of Johann's life before his arrival in Australia in 1855. I do not know how or when he got to England to then come to Australia. I will be delighted to hear if anyone is able to assist me further to learn more about my forbear.
