Hi Jon,

The immigration record I have given above would clearly seem to be you Albertine with her parents.

It is 1872.

They are the only ones of the name on HUMBOLT that year. No other children. She was not 12 in 1877.(as quoted  in the item)

I am not sure the tragedy you quote was the correct family.
I do not see any first names given in the items.

Cannot locate the murdered woman's death recorded in QLD.

Realized just after I posted that it was probably not the same family. Has to be a close relative though as they were all in the same area.
And yes I couldn' find any death for the murdered woman.
Will keep searching. Still can't trace Altertine's siblings or the parents. Have tried several combinations of names. Maybe they left the satate or returned home form whence they came?

Jon, there are 6 births & 2 deaths up to 1886 relating to Albertina's Siblings on the index which you should be able to see as you own the cd yourself 

I'll check further shortly for anyone else in the family.

Apparently the port of departure for the ship Humboldt was Hamburg and the arrival port Bowen - however, sometimes I find the arrival port is not necessarily the one the passengers actually disembark at.

CAPE MORETON. – Arrivals: July 23. Ship Humboldt, at 6.45 a.m.

The German emigrant ship Humboldt, Captain Busch, arrived at Cape Moreton at an early hour yesterday morning, with 365 passengers, nearly the whole of whom are Government emigrants.

The vessel only called in here to obtain a pilot to take her on to Bowen and Townsville, her ultimate destination. Captain Stewart, late of the schooner Royal Duke, proceeded down to the bay in the Francis Cadell, steamer, yesterday morning, for the purpose of navigating the vessel into Northern waters, he having been recommended for that duty by Captain Heath to the agents, Messrs, Berens, Ranniger, and Co.

The newspaper article re the murder could not have been the correct family. Franz Henry/ and Wilhelmina KLEMM had children in Queenland until nearly 10 years after this murder.

Hi
It should be noted, in case it is of relevance later, that the given name of ALBERTINE's father on the immigration record is HEINRICH

I agree   That's why post #11 is about the children being born up to 1886 & as Jon has his own QLD BDM cd he would be able to look them all up himself, hence the reason why I didn't bother listing them all
