Edinburgh 1868 aka Gutenberg Over recent weeks I have accessed much available information about Gutenberg passengers and their descendants. But I know there is a heap more out there that it would be good to include in the publication being prepared for the March 2026 Wellington Reunion of Descendants. 165 people - adults and children - travelled aboard the Gutenberg when it sailed from Bremehaven, Germany to Whanganui-a-tara (Wellington) 1875-76. I have information about over half of these people derived from genealogical websites, Papers Past, books, plus other internet and descendant-provided material. Information I have relates to the following immigrants:
Alve – Carl, Theresia and Anna Malgraff – Johann, Johanna, Clara, Auguste and Paulina Weiss Turchi – Carlo Giovanni, Santina Margarita and seven children Federli – Giovanni Battista Corrado – Pietro Schormann – Heinrich, Dorothea, Friedrich and Marie Briesemann – Heinrich (Cabin Passenger) Maul – Carl, Wilhelmine, Frederick and Wilhelmine(Jnr.) Bredow – Rudolph, Marie, Reinhold and Anna Kohler – Ewald, Auguste, Waldmar and Hedwig Nielsen – Ane Margaret, Marie and Niels Stenberg – Amalie, Mathildr, Axel and Johna E Ficinus – Carl, Bertha and Alexander Meyer – Johanne D. Mudrack – Robert, Auguste and Martha Paaske – Jorgen Schirnack – Carl, Wilhelmine, Franzisea and Emil Manz – Friedrich, Pauline, Bertha, Otto, Auguste, Emma and Minna Frandi – Aristodome, Anunciate, Franzisea, Italia and Aslo Ermer – Franz and Pauline Berthold – Wilhelm, Wilhelmina and Emil Antico – Carlo and Nicolina Bianchini – Antonio, Louisa and Odovardo Wallat – Fredrich, Caroline and Otto Lenz – Wilhelm and Alma Frei – Carl and Melchior (Brothers) Haber – Gottleib, Elise and Rosinia (Unmarried) If you have further info about any of these people, or their descendants through to 1926 you might consider copying me in. Then there are the other half of the immigrants, particularly the single men and women, about whom I have no information except their names on the passenger list which is accessible here: https://www.alve.nz/emigration-1875-1876.html If you can help with the provision of further info please contact me on 027 600 1926 or [email protected] or Messenger me. Or, make a post on this blog page. Many thanks - Terry Alve
