'LUBASCH's barn'  &  'LUBASCH's home'

Time-Line of family relationships & land transfers

1844-1882, 38 years

part Section 3812 Hd Kuitpo

We acknowledge the care and sensitivity taken by the PAECH family over many years of heritage guardianship in conserving these two unique buildings.

 

Summary:

I wrote an article [January 2024]  'Who build the Paechtown fachwerk homes',  which resulted from the interview transcript by Lothar BRASSE with Oswald Friedrich FAEHRMANN in 1975 becoming available for the first time. where Ossie named 'Gethings Barn' as one of the fine fachwerk constructions that his grandfather Johann Carl Friedrich FÄHRMANN built, I explore here who it was that commissioned that building.  In this article I will do that by looking at the ownership of Section 3812, Hd Kuitpo from 1844 when it was first purchased.

Carol PAECH & her family, of Beerenberg Farm, is the current owner of this barn & house and has worked with Lothar BRASSE to ensure they will be preserved for many more years.  This article will demonstrate that this barn, built by Carl FAEHRMANN for Gottlieb LUBASCH was built on section 3812 [as the boundaries were defined before 1844] soon after 1850 and before 1856.

While this particular barn has been called a number of names over the years including 'Hoffmann's Barn',  'Beerenberg Barn', 'Pfeiffer's Barn', as well as 'Gethings Barn' this article will examine which years & to whom these 'barn' names relate.  For instance land owners of section 3812, Stanley Lewis HOFFMANN owned this barn in 1961, & Dr GETHING owned [46 acres of section 3812] in 1881, [and he died in 1882] but neither of them had it built.

This article will follow all the transactions regarding Section 3812, beginning with Certificate of Title 16/15 [with references to 1844] until 1990.

I examine all the known information of ownership & records to determine the original family history behind 59 & 69 Auricht Rd, Hahndorf as well as all the information that leads us to believe that the house known as 'HOFFMANN's place' was  built for the LUBASCH family in 1849ca and that it was  the place where Gottfried LUBASCH died in 1856, and that it was known from 1881-1908 [when the GETHING family lived there] as 'St Julian's' and in the 1960's was the home of the HOFFMANN family.

In the 19th century section 3812 was owned by Johann Christian PAECH for 5 months only in 1881/1882.

One of these is the former LUBASCH barn at the Beerenberg farm.  This is one of the earliest buildings in the Hahndorf area and was constructed by pioneer Gottfried LUBASCH in the 1840's.  LUBASCH made a Special Purchase of the 52 acre section 3812 on 17 June 1844 at a cost of 104 pound.  He constructed a large German barn on his land soon afterwards and this formed the focus of his farm for many decades'.

Hahndorf Survey Vol 1 page 88 'Details from Duttons First Special Survey showing the German Village on sections 4002, 4003, 4004.In 1844, after only 5 years in the colony Gottfried LUBASCH & his wife Anna Dorothea GREISER could afford 104 pound for a 'Special Purchase' outside of the 'First Survey', where he acquired 52 acres on the south eastern edge of Hahndorf.  Look close at this First Special Survey map & you will see his Section 3812 included on the S.E. corner of 'German Village'.

The SA Land Returns for 1843 by Andrew & Sandra TWINING,  says that Gottfried LUBASCH had 90 sheep, 13 cattle  2 ponies, 4 pigs, 4 goats, 3 acres wheat, 1/4 acre barley, 1/2 acre potatoes. This was an impressive total when compared to the other early Prussian pioneers. 

While the LUBASCH / GREISER family purchased other sections of land in 1842 this was the only holding close to Hahndorf that was large enough to support the above numbers of cattle & sheep.  Was he able to squat on this land in 1843 prior to his purchase in 1844?.

This was LUBASCH's 2nd major land purchase because he had spent 78 pound on land 44kms further north east on the outskirts of current day Mount Pleasant two years earlier.  See below.

Hahn's Village by E.A. WITTWER 1979, 1 Main St Hahndorf.  

This first parcel of land, a 1 acre triangular shape is at the apex of Section 3812 & is 1 Main Street, Hahndorf. 

Reference 1:  The historian Alan WITTWER in 'Hahn's Village' 1979 says, 'The original cottage was constructed by Johann Gottlob SCHACH, an early resident of Hahndorf, soon after he purchased an acre of land from Gottfried LUBASCH in 1854.'

 

Authors Note: To date I have not found evidence of this transaction.  Note the central chimney & 8 panes of glass in each window, the shingle roof is absent & evidence of fachwerk construction is not obvious.

Authors Note:  While I did find the surname 'SASS' in the SAILIS land records I was unable to find a record purchase for the Hd Kuitpo from 'Historical Name Index Search' dates : 1858-1944.

What I have found for the ownership of this 1 acre is by George BANKS immediately prior to a transfer to G.A. KUCHEL, in 1903.

This 1 acre  land parcel changed hands from J.G. SCHACH on a date unknown [records still to be located] and in 1903 as shown in this Certificate of Title below, it was owned by George BANKS  'the elder of Millbrook, Gentleman'.

 

The following title reveals that BANKS sold this parcel in 1909 to Gottfried Alfred KUCHEL, just before 'Fred', as he was known,  was to marry Rose Therese Irene HENNINGSEN.

The details & circumstances of LUBASCH's last will was laid out in a fruitless Supreme Court challenge by his sons in law, who contested the validity of the will in front of a packed court room of German friends, neighbours,  relatives & Lutheran congregation members.  This court case was  covered by ...... newspapers, the details of which begin to lay out the identify of this small piece of land, buildings and its succession through family ownership.

59 Auricht Rd, Hahndorf.The original portion built in 1855 at 59 Auricht Rd was built when this eldest daughter arrived with her husband Gottlieb WIETH, & it is recorded that some assistance was given by Gottlieb LUBASCH.  It was described in the Mt Barker Heritage Survey 2004 as having a 'separate smokehouse & bake oven'.

Settled in early 1950's by the 'Kaysher Paechs', the small group of fachwerk farm houses attracted much attention until a disastrous bushfire destroyed all but one in the early 1980's.  The newly built Freeway of 1974 cut right through Paechtown Road, which used to come out on the Hahndorf's ain street where Auricht Road does now.  Paechtown Road had to be rerouted through several of South Hahndorf's building allotments similarly cut off from the town, to emerge on to Pine Avenue.  Often, people nicknamed Paechtown Road the 'Red Road', because of the district red granite through which part of the road runs out in the countryside.  Never the less, the Echunga Council chose the name of the Wilhelm Faehrmann family with which to call the street in 1926. Carriers and gardeners, three generation os the Faehrmanns lived in a farm house built abasing the street on the left, soon after the main road turn off.  Wilhelm's father, carpenter Carl Faehrmann, had emigrated from Tangermünde, in Prussian Saxony, during 1849; he married Eleanore LIEBELT, one of Hahndorf's foundation settlers.  The name 'Paechtown Road' first appeared in the Mount Barker Council 1864 Assessment Book.'

photo from Mt Barker Heritage Survey 2004

By Lothar BRASSE, February 2024.  Sketch not to scale

The sketch on the right by L. BRASSE heritage architect is of this west facing farm house on section 3812, that I believe was built to accomodate the LUBASCH family when they moved from the Main Street in Hahndorf to their farm in 1849ca.

Along with L. BRASSE I believe it is possibly  older than the 'LUBASCH barn' which is less than 100 meters east of the home.

 

Other buildings, in what was possibly a well organised farmyard belonging to a well to do German ex publican, have yet to be discovered.  See here to unlock the secrets in the ceiling and in the kitchen of this unique and unassuming early German colonial home.

In attempting to prove this theory I have drawn on the information revealed in the Supreme Court challenge launched by LUBASCH's three sons in law in 1857.  It is a lengthy & fascinating read, and I quote extensively from TROVE.

This is not staying in this article

My research suggests that between 1850–70, he and his sons built many important buildings in and around Hahndorf. The Beerenberg barn is just one example of many. 

What is particular about Carl Faehrmanns work is the  symmetry (a sense of harmonious and beautiful proportion and balance. Wikipedia.)

 

I believe these buildings are of international importance because they represent the best collection of its genre - not just within Australia but also outside Europe

 

I believe that Carl was one of many carpenters in the Australian context that built these half timbered structures  - but Carls were without doubt the most substantive and artistic.

 

Carls father, Nicolaus Fährmann 1790 -1852 was a Zimmerman but while Tangermünde is indeed blessed with many picturesque and varied half timbered structures but I found no Faehrmann leads or traces of a matching building type.

 

Death of Maria Elizabeth LUBASCH

Maria Elizabeth LUBASCH was first married a couple of years after the court confirmed her father's will in her favour, to Johann Gottfried LIEBELT who died 7 years later in 1866 and then 2nd husband Johann Wilhelm PAECH in 1867. 

Maria died at her 'usual residence in Hahndorf' on 15 April 1890 and the informant to the Registrar in Nairne was Hahndorf teacher Friedrich Wilhelm Julious EY.  Maria was only 54 years of age, had had 7 children & she died of Phthisis, a progressive wasting disease, perhaps caused by tuberculosis. Maria's youngest child was Anna Dorothea PAECH, 18 years of age.
