If any of your Wagner rellies came to Australia a lot of Germans liked Queensland including the Darling Downs areas including Toowoomba,Marburg Qld....anyways I don't know if you're related but there are Wagners in Toowoomba Queensland and the are in the Quarry business etc they are a very successful and well known here in Toowoomba they might be related to you?.

Yes Thankyou very much Ros most appreciated.

I'm helping family with family research (we are all trying to help one another lol)

Family in Victoria Australia are keen to learn more about Joanna Nash (preferably) daughter of
George Nash (seen spelt Neash also) and Joanna Scaulton (other name variations seen also) the family went to Tasmania we knew they were convicts.

we are hoping someone may have info about Joanna the daughter some say
Joanna s and George Nash only had one son but I've found two George jnr and James and Joanna fits in between them it appears however no birth record can be found making us wondering if she was aboriginal and adopted? As family have s picture and she is dark.

The boys look like being born Westbury Tassie but family say Joanna (the daughter/Nash) was from
Doleraine in Tassie???.

Joanna the daughter/Nash married Frederick Chaddock Dunn one of his sons was John James Dunn.John m Laura Mavis Patterson.My husbands gma was Laura's sister and I'm assisting the
Dunn clan /descendants (Dunn and Stanborough,Baxter etc) clan in finding info etc and came across Brlindys threads.

So if she could contact me that'd be great!..


😀 Thankyou very much Overton72.

Long shot and I don't have much information but does anyone here have a german
Relative who came to Melbourne Australia (was a miner at Ballarat vic)

B circa 1840 Carl/Karl Frederick Patterson  said b Hamburg Germany.
To Melbourne Australia via London arrived 1859 mail steamer the Mauritius
M English born Emma Ward daughter of Edward Mormon Ward and Charlotte
Pitt.
D Sebastspol (near Ballarat vic Australia) 1898 miners disease b Ballarat new cemetery.
Lived Albert Street Sebastapol.

Carl/Karl Frederick known as Charles Frederick Patterson.

Family lore states family from Lubeck Schleswig Holstein
Australian marriage certificate says Emma and Charles born Christian Bible Christian Church Ballarat.
Australian marriage certificate says parents of Charles are Mary Canute (I know this can be Danish or English but family says henry is German and know family spoke it. Henry supposed to be a farmer.

Here's my problem..Naturilisation papers no help just states what Charles was known as here.No birth year or date. Just says born Hamburg (Search in their records yeilded no results).,
Henry & Mary obviously anglisicised.

Charles didn't like Catholics.

Have no other information or pics have no idea who he was
,family is/was outside Australia

Some connection Also to aussie cyclist sid Patterson but don't know where or how??? As they're English I believe.

Think our german family (someone) german military links. Don't know where or who.

I know somebody has the answer one only followed my hubby around for years we just want to know our roots so damn frustrating everywhere I've turned every thing I've tried or followed dead end. No
Money for researcher DNA ..going bonkers!.
