The Grasbrook is one of the vessels belonging to Peter Goddefroy and Co., the well known Hamburg firm, whose vessels keep up a regular line from Hamburg via the Cape. She has brought as usual a cargo of miscellaneous goods and a number of passengers. The voyage from the Cape has been performed in 34 days without noteworthy incident. |
An index from the State Library South
Australia (SLSA) shows that 21 German migrants should have been
on the Grasbrook for Port Adelaide, I have been able
to find numbers as listed below — Regards
Robert.
note.— There are very
few surviving original lists of German passengers, so
the data below has been compiled from a variety of sources,
such as contemporary newspaper(s), internet sources,
input from descendants and the South Australian Heraldry
Genealogy society, (SAGHS).
I know the list is incomplete and may contain errors, so any feedback with
additions or corrections, will be most appreciated. Please contact me
using the link above. Regards
Robert, Adelaide
