My Sommerfeld family came to Queensland in Australia on 'Cesar Godeffroy', departing Hamburg on 25.10.1860.
They were: SOMMERFELD, Martin (45), his second wife Caroline (aged 49)
Wilhelmine (26) Carl (25) Ferdinand (21) Wilhelm (15) Carl (14) Robert(11) Johanna (11)
Emma (4 - my ggrandmother, married August William Frederick BAND in 1876, Tiereyboo Station, Condamine, Qld.)
All were listed as coming from Zlotkowo, Posen, Prussia and Martin's surname was shown as "Schäfer" - (farmer ?),
born in Suchylas / Zlotkowo in 1816 and died 1873, Toowoomba, Qld.

Martin SOMMERFELD was first married to Caroline POLSFUSS and she died in Zlotkowo in 1860, aged 35.
Their children (some of whom died in Europe) were Robert, William, Johanna Augustine, Emilie Ernestine,
Anna Rosina, Eva Christiane and August Carl (Charles) Martin.
He then married his second wife, Caroline HENTSCHEL on 15.7.1860 and apparently adopted
her three children by her previous marriage, as (Charlotte) Wilhelmine (born 1836), Carl (born 1837)
and (Johann) Ferdinand (born 1841) bore the Sommerfeld name on shipping lists.

I have no ancestors for Martin SOMMERFELD or Caroline HENTSCHEL, but I know
Caroline POLSFUSS parents were Johann POLSFUSS and Anna Christina WILLERT,
so anything you can tell me of them would be much appreciated.
