Johann Jacob BRUHN 1826 married Anna MASSEN 1827-1865 GERMANY

[turramurra]

The Bruhn family set out from their homeland in 1865 for Brisbane, Queensland Australia.
Johann and Anna and 7 children left Hohenholzn Holstein
As unassisted migrants they left the port of Hamburg and boarded the "Peter Godeffroy" ship captained by Meyers.
238 passengers were on board and 59 died on the voyage including Anna Bruhn and her baby sons, Wilhelm and August.
The story of the family buying land and establishing farms near Toowoomba QLD is an heroic one.
The 5 children were cared for by their father and many friends as they grew up.

Could anyone please find any birth certificates of the Bruhn children born in Germany?
Our Local German family History group is writing this story for a  book about German ancestors in our
Kur ring gai area.
