Just found several online trees for Louis LESEBERG and one states
Lived in Victoria for 25 yrs and was listed as "Hotel Keeper" at the time of his death

Perhaps you could contact the compilers of these trees or possibly you are one of them

The hotel was named The Farmers Arms and the building still stands. We have Christmas lunch there each year.

The other on line trees I have been in touch with some of the researchers. Many have taken the info from the research my husbands aunt did. She is in her 80's and has just returned home after 5 months rehab post fall.

She has purchased many of the certificates so will need to contact her. I do recall her saying she was not sure of their arrival.

Cando when I looked at the microfiche for the Eagle Speed there was no husband or children. I would not imagine Louis would come out with 3 children and Caroline coming out at another time.

Interesting the music gene has been passed down the generations HOWEVER missed my husband.

Cando have sent a PM

There are many errors and omissions on passenger lists.  My maternal gggrandfather kept a wonderfully detailed diary including many entries about his journey to Australia in 1853 however he and his brother's names are not on the passenger list of unassisted immigrants who arrived Melbourne.  My paternal gggrandmother and her children are noted as born in Scotland [they weren't] and all their ages are incorrect and not just by a few years.

There are so few LESEBERG's in Australia and there is no other Caroline LESEBERG on the BDM indexes.  It is possible that Louis and children have been indexed with a mistranscribed surname. I've read comments along the lines of there was not the interest in recording accurate information for unassisted passengers as they had paid their passage whereas fares for assisted immigratns were paid or were due by agents or third parties.

Even the following Act did not enforce accurate ship's manifests especially during the gold rush.

In 1852 the “Act to Regulate the Conveyance of Passengers to the Colony of Victoria” was passed. This law required that ships arriving from foreign and inter-colonial ports provide details on the passengers aboard as well as other particulars of the ship.
