Hello Essie

Thank you for the information.

Would you please provide me with the source of this record.  The family emigrated to NZ 2 Feb 1874, then to Australia in 1887.  The family then returned to NZ in 1904, less Caroline Josephine.  Between 1887 and 1904 they returned to Denmark where Stella Clara was born 12 Aug 1887.  This must be the Immigration entry for their return from Denmark.  Any other information on this voyage would be appreciated.

Thank you for the information already provided.

Regards

Bigsie

Hi
I thought I'd look up Clara Stella's birth record. You may have this:

Sokkelund, St Johannes Parish:

1905 Queensland State Electoral Roll
The Electoral District of Cairns, Division of Mareeba
Page 40
No 1519
Surname and Christian Names, STEVENS, Alfred George.
Age, 41
Abode, Chillagoe's Company Office, Chillagoe.
Occupation, Clerk.
Particulars of Qualification Freehold, Selection 20v, Par of Formantine.
Date when claim received by Electoral Registrar. 5th Nov 1901.

Looks like Alfred was working in Chillagoe but qualified to be on the Cairns Electoral District Roll because he held land freehold in the Parish of Formantine near Kuranda.

The following is a old map of The Parish of Formantine and the 20v Selection is clearly indicated as 174 acres under the names of A GORDON and A. G. STEVENS. 

The map had been folded many times, Goto the second folded box from the top right to find 20V

Hi Gerry

Many thanks for your research.  It is most appreciated as I would not have thought to search or no where to, for this information. 

Kind regards

Bigsie

Hello Debra

I am a bit new to Rootschat so my Replies are disjointed.
