Passenger Lists
German Emigrants
to South Australia, 1837-1851
(project in progress)
This is another new project of immigrants arriving in
South Australia,
from Germany,
1837-1851. These lists have been transcribed
from the original passenger lists, by Robert Janmaat of Adelaide, who
has generously shared them with TheShipsList. Where available, extracts
regarding a particular ship have been included, from the Sydney Shipping
Gazette and the South Australian Register. The South Australian Government
Gazette (return showing deaths on board Emigrant ships 1849 to 5th
June 1865) has
also been consulted.

note: the original lists were created by an individual
unfamiliar with German names, so name spellings from the Biographical
index SA (BISA) have been included in brackets. The list below has
been compiled from a variety of sources such as the BISA, the Birth-Death-Marriage
(BDM) index, the newspaper list (above), online research and has also
been cross-checked to a list by Dulcie Love, long time convenor of
the Germanic research group at the South Australian Heraldry Genealogy
Society (SAGHS). There are a few gaps in this list, but from my experience
in researching German passenger lists, I have found that quite a few
German settlers migrated from South Australia to Victoria and Queensland.
Any feedback and/or correction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you — Robert
