There is a death for a Freidrich SCHAUER in Adelaide in 1912. From the South Australia database.

Thanks for all those Johnf04,

I didn't know Gustave went to America. That's very interesting.

I'd seen the military file and the probate, but not the newpaper articles. I'm not sure about Frederick dying in S.A. Especially with a more German sounding name.

The death of Carl Albert in Taihape. Much more of a remote location his previous work as a Hotel Owner in Wellington. Those American ships using NOK listings that far back is so handy.
I know his daughter was Ellinor Alice Elizabeth Schauer, and that she married a man named John Alphege Fagan, who I think died in 1971. I think she died 1994. But I haven't saved my sources properly. I never found reference to any Children from then. I'm not sure they had any but it would be hidden from record. It would be nice to one day find one of my cousins from the Schauer lines, but I'm not sure is there are any to find.

There is a lot about Carl on Papers Past - he qualified as a plumber, became a sanitary inspector, left after some years to run the hotel, then went back to sanitary inspections.

John Alphege FAGAN died in 1986.

1986/46723   Fagan   John Althege   19 April 1896

His military files are interesting - he had a number of aliases.

[Johnf04]

John FAGAN's duplicate military file (there are two files available) has his world war 2 attestation - with information about his birthplace, and marital status at the time. He states he has 3 children under 16 years of age, and is legally separated from his wife.

Edited to add....the attestation is file 22

Thanks Minihaha for those extra dates arounnd Carl, Ellen and Ellinor.

Wow, and thank you John for finding word of those Children. I didn't know I'd find any if they existed. It'll be harder to find anything about them unless they're looking into their own family heritage. And it's likely they're all passed away now. Those Fagan parent names are a great help.

Also! I noticed that Rudolph's war papers had his sister Marie Fox as the Next of Kin! I've been working on Her mostly as she's my direct relative. I've added it to a forum I started to work on.

Seany - there may be someone here who can check for death notices for John - his date of death is on a notification in the army file. He died on Waiheke Island, so the NZ Herald would be the place to look.Children's names should be mentioned in a death notice.

John.
