Unfortunately I do not know the date of birth.
But his son was born in 1875 and he stated his age to be 32 years. So I am guessing Adolphus was born around 1843? Where did you get 7.3.1843? I followed all links above and I can see that it is very likely that he changed his surname when he arrived to Australia. Possibly even his first names. This is quite a detective work! |

Zitat:
They are just taken from a collection of family books that some people have created for some places. There's no guarantee that such a book exists for the place where your ancestor was born. Since you only have rather vague information: Even if you'd find somebody who seems to be matching, you probably should check the rest of Hanover to make sure he's not just a duplicate. Zitat:
However, I think you should try to get more information on your side of the globe first. Anything that you get there will make identification over here much easier. |

Hello doktor,
I am afraid your search for your ancestor has by default the characteristics of a wild goose chase because you have so very little hard evidence of his real identity. All I can come up with is speculation but that does not help. I notice from his marriage record that he was working as a 'gold miner' and he and his wife lived in Sidney in 1874. Have you already tried to find his and or his wife's name in a Sidney address book from that time? Were tenants in those days in some form recorded by the municipal authorities? Were work permits issued to immigrants? Can you find any records of the existing gold mining companies and their records in the area? I assume you have already trawled through the NSW records? I really think your best hope to find anything about your ancestor's true identity is in your country. This search should also include his father Henry August Macks because he could have been the original immigrant and 'Henry Christopher" came over while still an infant. Wishing you good luck in your quest Liebe Gruesse Rieke |
