The families I am seeking information on are as follows:-
My Great Great grandfather was JOHANN CARL LUDWIG
VOJE. He was born in July 1837 in Karenz, Mecklenburg. His
parents were CATHERINE ELISABETH HENRIETTE VOJE
born in 1815 in Karenz Mecklenburg and his natural father was
CARL CHRISTIAN ERDMANN BERGMANN who was born
in Spornitz, Mecklenburg in 1798. They never married. JOHANN
CARL LUDWIG VOJE was Confirmed at the age of 14, in 1852
in Eldena Mecklenburg. Sometime between 1852 and 1858 he
emigrated to London England. In 1858 he married ANNA
WELLBROCK in London England. At the time of his marriage in
London, JOHANN CARL LUDWIG was known by his natural
fathers surname of BERGMANN.
ANNA WELLBROCK was the daughter of DIETRICH
WELLBROCK and LENA SCHROEDER from Worpswede
Teufelsmoor near Bremen Germany. My Great Grandfather
CARL FRIEDRICH HEINRICH BERGMANN was their first
child born in London in 1859.
Their second child born in London was Henrietta Catherina Lena
(Reeke) BERGMANN. She was born in 1861.
In 1862 the BERGMANN Family emigrated once again, this time
to Brisbane Queensland Australia and settled approximately 50
Kilometres west of Brisbane in a location then known as 7 Mile
Creek.
They had 4 more children born here in Queensland, and these were
:-
Eliza Ida BERGMANN born in 1870
Wilhelm BERGMANN born in 1874
Caroline BERGMANN born in 1876 &
Alfred BERGMANN born in 1880.
I also have traced my main BERGMANN family back to Circa
1590 where my Great Grandfather ACHIM BERGMANN was
born in Wustenfelde bei Oldenslohe Holstein Germany. Later one
of his sons, my ancestor, JOHANN BERGMANN was born in
Gross Berge Brandenberg, Circa 1619. This ancestor JOHANN
BERGMANN later married MARGARETA TODT in 1653. I
have traced the male BERGMANN line down to today.
JOHANN & MARGARETA BERGMANN had at least 7
Children. These were as follows:-
Christian born 1657
Jochim born 1659
Claus born 1664
Peter born 1667
Andreas born 1670
Greta born 1673
Anna born 1679
My ancestor PETER BERGMANN above later married REGINA
VOGLER who was born in Gülitz Brandenburg in 1668. They had
3 Children that I am aware of who were as follows:-
Casper born 1699
Johann born 1702 and my direct ancestor
HANS CHRISTIAN BERGMANN born 1707.
HANS later moved to Spornitz Mecklenburg as a Schmeidergesel
and married ANNA MARGARETHA ROGMANN in Spornitz in
1739.
HANS & ANNA MARGARETHA had 7 children as follows:-
Johann born 1740
Jochen Heinrich born 1743
Anna born 1745
Sophia born 1747
Christian born 1749
Anna born 1753
Johann born 1755
My direct ancestor JOCHEN HEINRICH BERGMANN above
later married ANNA ELISABETH LUTHEN in 1766 & they had
6 children. Unfortunately Anna died in 1791 so my ancestor
JOCHEN HEINRICH again married to my ancestor
FRIEDERIKA KOEHLER in 1791. They went on to have 2 more
children of which 1 was my direct ancestor CARL CHRISTIAN
ERDMANN BERGMANN who was born in Spornitz in 1798. It
was this person who in 1837 fathered an Illegitimate child with
CATHERINA ELISABETH HENRIETTE VOJE mentioned
earlier in this email.
I would be very interested to know if anybody else is researching
any of these families or has any Information they are willing to share.
Thanks in advance
