South Burnett Connections<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s amongst Johann and Henrietta’s children that the South Burnett connection grows strong.<\/p>\n

Toowoomba-born Ernest at one stage owned the Mondure Hotel in Wondai (located where the Warana Hotel is today).<\/p>\n

These days, there are two main branches of the Kratzmann family in the South Burnett.<\/p>\n

The Windera Kratzmanns are descended from Johann and Henrietta’s son Wilhelm Friedrich and his wife Anna Maria. This family includes well-known veteran cricketer Neville and tennis champion Mark.<\/p>\n

The Murgon Kratzmanns are descended from Johann and Henrietta’s son Herman Wilhelm and his wife Bertha Louis who settled at Pittsworth.<\/p>\n

Descendants of this couple, who opened a hardware store in Murgon, include brothers Col and Keith Kratzmann, and South Burnett mayor Wayne.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Later this month some of the estimated 3000 descendants of a Prussian couple who have helped to shape the history of the South Burnett will gather to mark the sesquicentenary of their arrival in Australia.<\/p>\n

Johann Friedrich (1828-1898) and Henrietta Sophia Kratzmann (1825-1905) arrived in Brisbane on board the “Johan Cesar” on February 6, 1866.<\/p>\n

Johann and Henrietta, and five of their children, sailed from Hamburg on October 7, 1865.<\/p>\n

Sadly, one of the children, a small boy, died at sea.<\/p>\n

The couple settled on about 11 acres in Toowoomba, near the western end of Spring Street and the Middle Ridge Golf Course.<\/p>\n

There they had another son, Ernest Frederick, born in 1868.<\/p>\n

Johann and Henrietta, who are buried in the Drayton Ceremony, have many South Burnett descendants (see box, at right)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

* * *<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Descendant Col Kratzmann, from Kingaroy, said 120 people had indicated that they were coming to the reunion so far.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It will be held on Saturday, February 20, at the Church of Christ Hall, Progress Court in Harlaxton, North Toowoomba.<\/p>\n

Registrations will begin at 10:00am.<\/p>\n

To RSVP, phone Col on (07) 4162-2867.<\/p>\n

Col said attendees should bring their own picnic lunch, but tea and coffee would be available.<\/p>\n

Other family names amongst Johann and Henrietta’s descendants include Lobegeier, Lehmann and Anderson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
