Australia / STEIN FAMILY - Erbach, Germany to Sydney ---then to Wellington NSW
« on: Monday 03 March 14 10:36 GMT (UK) »
My original ancestor into Australia was Henrich Joseph STEIN arriving into Sydney from Erbach in Germany in 1849 to work for the MCARTHUR family as vinedresser. Heinrich died in 1854, but their son John STEIN was born only months after his parents landed in Sydney, married three times. His first wife Nancy ADAMS has a son named Samuel Charles. Samuel and his wife Myria Louise/a CARR had a son Albert George, who is my grandfather.
From the birth certificates of John's other children, Samuel's brothers and sisters, some of them were born in Orange NSW around the region of March during the period of 1873 to 1881. John and Nancy returned back to the Camden/Fairfield/Smiithfield area where the last child was born and his wife Nancy died in 1884. John died 7 February 1939.
My greatgrandfather Samuel Charles STEIN was born in March, outside of Orange NSW and then married in Wellington NSW, where he died in 15 April 1934. The STEIN family from their Obits are recorded as being strong Salvationist (Salvation Army), which did not continue past Samuel Charles generation in Wellington from where I was born and raised.
I would love to know how to track the Stein movements from 1873 through to about 1910 especially. I would love to make contact with others who have been tracing this family.
