Monrath

[queenie3]

I am trying to find out when Odine Monrath and Clementina Josephine Monrath emigrated to New Zealand. I know when they married [Odine - 1890 to James McColl and Clementina 1884 to William Woodward] and I am slowly tracking down their children but I have got stuck in regard their origins and when they arrived in NZ. If there is any kind soul out in Roots Chat land who can help me I would be grateful.

Hello...

1873 into Auckland aboard the Berar

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-11680-90588-72?cc=1609792

Mother (Julie), daughter (Clementine) and.... grandchildren?

I can't find a birth for Odine or Carl. Reasonably sure that Julie is their grandmother as her husband Sophus died in the 1850's and there's no obvious re-marriage. I'm not too sure if Clementine is their mother.

EDIT: 1869 register for Trinitatis parish in Copenhagen has Clementine as Odine's mother. Father is Hans Peter RIEVERS. They are not married. No mention that I can see of an 1872/73 birth for Carl.

Out of interest, Julie and family were nominated migrants. It's mentioned in the "Remarks" column on the far right of the passenger list. According to Archway the 1873 ledger to which the column refers still exists. Might be worth a look to see who nominated them. Maybe Johanne Mathilde, later ALEXANDER. Maybe not.

The family origins are pretty much covered on various trees on geni.com....

...but just be aware that in several Danish records the family name is given as MONRAD, not MONRATH. Specifically the 1840, 1850 and 1860 censuses.

Oh - Is that twins - Mabel 1892 and Adelaide 1892?  Many thanks. I can't imagine how I missed the births I have only been on BDM all afternoon -  - talk about not seeing what is right in front of you.
This is truly marvellous

In 'Papers Past' there is a description of the voyage from London of the 'Berar' which you may find interesting. ['Auckland Star' dated 3.9.1873.]

The Monrath family are shown here as:

Julie, 54.
Clementine, 23.
Odena, 3.
Carl, 1.

Also the marriage of Clementine Josephine, daughter of the late S. Monrath, Esq., of Copenhagen.
['Auckland Star', dated 12.7.1884.]
