1.    Introduction

In August 2018, having cycled from Amsterdam across northern Germany, down the Oder & into Poland [to visit the villages of the passengers of the 1838 ‘Zebra’ voyage to South Australia] we then followed the Friedrich Wilhelm Kanal, the Spree, the Havel and then the Elbe to arrive in the Hanseatic old city of Tangermünde.  Records showed that my great great grandfather Johann Carl Friedrich FÄHRMANN a carpenter, arrived on the Princess Louise in 1849 from Tangermünde. At the tourist office in the centre of the small walled city I discovered in a phone book the name & address of a ‘FÄHRMANN’ and within days we met Dominik FÄHRMANN [later discovered to be 5th cousin 1 removed] his wife Simone, his uncle Bernd FÄHRMANN [later discovered to be 5th cousin] & his wife Monica & their daughter and granddaughter Jeanette & Michelle who had no idea they had relatives in Australia. None of these relatives could speak much English but we managed to establish and mutual understanding and a creation of German families emigrating to South Australia. 

Dominik FÄHRMANN & author Janis HAYNES, 2018.               Monika, Janis, Berndt, Simone, Dominik & Fran. 2018.                ‘How are we related Dominik?’ 2018.

The following year Jeanette with the help of her mother and daughter, spent countless hours in the Stendal Church Archives finding the German links and connections that held us together and I think to some extent confirm the reality of a woman on a bike arriving saying her mother was a FAEHRMANN to a mechanic from Stendal and a nurse from Tangermünde. Living their entire lives in this area of the old East German GDR they are very familiar with all of the tiny surrounding villages into which that our discovered ancestors were born, married and died.

Fast forward to 2023 and I have again returned to visit my German roots and am using this opportunity to post the considerable research attributed to the ‘Tangermunde FÄHRMANN’S’. 

Currently the oldest records discovered have shown that we are descendant from the 5 sons of Johann Christian FÄHRMANN and his wife Katharina Marie KOHNEN.  The FÄHRMANN’s currently living in Stendal & Tangermünde are from the 1st son Johann Friedrich b1780c and all South Australian FÄHRMANN’s, like myself, from the 3rd son born ten years later, Nicolaus b1790.

Surnames of interest:

  • FÄHRMANN, KÖHNEN, VOIGT, JÄHRMANN, SCHMIDT, ERNST, CUNOW, SCHULZE, LANGE, LEPPER

Towns of interest:

  • Rohrbeck, Cabelitz / Kabelitz, Schonhausen, Tangermunde, Dömitz, Ellingen, Neuendorf a. Speck, Jerichow 11, Freistaat Sachsen, Palmer, Reedy Creek,

 

Willi Franz Bernd FÄHRMANN of Tangermünde, my 5th cousin, looking through his collection of family documents

                The author and Bernd’s wife Monika who spent hours researching our history, both German speakers only. 2023.                        Jeanette on left, their daughter & my 5th cousin 1 removed, who could not believe she had relatives in Australia and consequently spent months in the Stendal Archives & collected this articles information.

A 5th cousin 1 removed means we share a common ancestor but their relationship with that ancestor is one step removed from mine. This means that Jeanette and Dominik and I share a common great, great, great, great grandparent, but ‘my’ generation is the same as Bernd’s.

Together my cousin Jeanette FÄHRMANN and I were able to walk into this church with possibly the same simple interior as when our ancestors married here some 236 years previous.

The baptismal font is an old mill stone which was only obvious when we moved the metal dish, to reveal the grinding patterns.

We were allowed to climb some of the old stairs towards the church bell.
