Family history across the seas

Using a slideshow of photos to illustrate my latest post in the Beyond the internet series didn’t work all that well. I thought I’d post the images here so you can get a better look at what they offer – you never know there might just be a rellie among them.

Remember you can click on each photo to enlarge it.

The Patzwald family buried in Cabarlah cemetery, Queensland.

Suffer little children..to come unto me, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven….

John Monzel born Trier buried in Dutton Park cemetery, Brisbane, Queensland.

Adelaide Ah Kinn, born Scotland married to William Ah Kinn, either Chinese or of Chinese descent. I’m fascinated by her and would love to hear from her descendants. She lived in Urana when my 2 x great aunt also lived there. Did they know each other? Was Adelaide socially isolated?

Johannah Wall is buried in the Roma Cemetery, Queensland.

Paulina Graf’s memorial is in German. She is remembered in the Meringandan cemetery on the Darling Downs, Queensland.

Michael Moylan is buried in the Dungog cemetery, NSW.

Margaret Mary Byron at Dungog cemetery, NSW

The Meagher brothers are buried together which is interesting, as in my experience the clergy are often in a separate area of the cemetery.

Bridget Shanahan was of interest to me as an immigrant of the same name came from East Co Clare.
