Hi,

I am wondering if there is SKS who could check for
a possible Victorian marriage around 1855-1860
between Frederik John DOWEL and Johanna Christina
HAMMAN.

I believe their children Henry (1860), George
(1865), Johanna (1868), Mary (1970), Ernest
(1975), Frederick (1977) and Flora Louise (1881)
where all born in Victoria but I suspect they
themselves were born in Germany.

Thank you
Pat

Pat,
I don't see a marriage. Information (DATE) should be on a birth
certificate.
I don't know where Bass is or the abbreviation.
Glen may be Glenlyon which is close to Daylesford.
I didn't see anything for Flora

*******************************8

Pat,
I agree with Philomena's suggestion of GLEN.

BASS could not be an abbreviation, so it must be BASS on the Bass
Highway just before Kilcunda or the turn off to Phillip Island in
South Gippsland, which seems in disagreement with all of the others
in the Daylesford district, but they could have moved.
His occupation could give a clue.
BUT,Frederick (b) Bass 1877. #20199 was late in the year.
Then Frederick (d) Daylesford 1877, # 12024 was early in the year.
does seem odd.
However I would suggest you obtain
the (b) Cert. of Frederick # 20199 as an earlier Frederick # 12024
may have died & they used the name in "memory".
Also the Cert. shoula answer all questions.

Hi Philomena & Ken,

Thank you for all the information.

It would appear that there were two sons called
Frederick. One born around 1863 and died aged
14yrs in 1877 and one born 1877 and died in 1931.

I appreciated all the help.

Regards
Pat

Pat
Note on death 1877-12024 place of birth is given
not place of death.
This changed in 1881 to place of death.
I live in Daylesford
Good to see Ken helping again
Philomena

No record in Victoria for Births, Henry 1860, or Frederick 1863 but there
was another child 1873

Unfortunately no place of birth listed for Johanna or Frederick on Index but
with age for each shown perhaps someone with Ancestry might be able to do a
little more searching, or a Transcript of death certificate(s) with least
amount of detail requested should give desired result.

There is this immigration, Pat:

Name: J Hamman
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1832
Age: 21
Arrival Date: 19 Nov 1853
Arrival Port: Melbourne, Australia
Departure Port: Hamburg, Germany
Ship: Jenny Lind
Nationality: German

Gender not stated, but Hamman seems to be a common name. A lot went to
Rhodesia.

A Dowel family tree on Ancestry.com has George's father as

Frederick John Dowel
Birth ABT 1833 in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany
Death 1907 in Korumburra, Victoria, Australia

Spouse: Johanna Sophia Hamman
Birth ABT 1835 in Rostock, Germany
Death 27 Aug 1910 in Korumburra, Victoria, Australia

No marriage, but 6 children.

Korumburra is in the vicinity of the Bass Highway.

Still looking,

Doug.

Put Fred in my Research fasmily tree on Ancestry. Got a HARLAND tree which
says the parents married 1856 in Liverpool, England. Must have been waiting
to board their ship. I can't find the marriage on FreeBMD.
