Has anyone got any information on Carl Tewes who left Hanover Germany arround 1846 - 1851 and travelled to the US. He travelled to Australia in 1874. I have since found that he had a nephew with him in Australia by the the name of Henry Tewes. Henry Tewes was born in New York in 1853. His parents names were Conrad Tewes and Anna Tewes nee Bellow. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi,

I am a direct decedent of Carl Heinrich Tewes, Carl is buried on a property on Djuan Rd between Toowoomba and Cooyar.
I have just come back from holidays from North Stradbroke Island and found that a Henry Tewes died 1924 age 70 of chronic rheumatism and is buried at the Dunwich cemetery.
I read with interest that you say that Henry was Carl's newphew have you any more information?

Hi,

My grandmother was Maria Martha Krause (nee Tewes). She was the daughter of Carl Heinrich.
From information I have found, apparently Henry Tewes came to Australia with Carl. Henry married Sarah Izard in 1877/78. The information on his marriage certificate states that he was born in New York in 1851 and his father's name was Conrad Tewes. Other information I have gained through Ruth Stiller (another decendent of Carl)has indicated that Henry and Sarah owned a general store at Highfields for a period of time. Henry and Sarah had no children.
I may have more information but as I haven't done much work on the research for some time, I will have to dig through my files to locate the information. If you would like to any details of any further information I may have, please email me at rayjkrause@gmail.com

Don't know if you're still after info given that your post was quite a number of years ago. My great, great-grandfather was Carl Heinrich Tewes - married to Anna Louise nee Sperling. I'm descended from their daughter Anna Emilie Tewes (who married August Wilhelm Vonhoff), Carl's fourth child (3rd living at the time). Carl's birthplace was listed as Utersen, Hanover Germany.
