What a wonderful story and thank you! I'm studying the 'Diploma of Family History' through the University of Tasmania and came upon this looking for information and understanding of why the Lutherans came to Australia. (I'm about to write a biography for one of the units.) My third great grandfather, his wife and young children came out to Bethanie in 1850 from Sawade, Silesia. Obviously religious persecution was no longer the reason, however some of his family had come out earlier due to that. I have now fell in love with your amazing song. Although I'm not a Schultz, or any other of the family names mentioned, it brought tears to my eyes! Either I'm a softie or my pride of descending from such a rich culture brought strong emotions that I hadn't known were there. I'm going for the latter first! 😁

Imagine a television station or anyone making a documentary about South Australia now it's as if we don't exist . We have been written out of history so that simple people will think that Australia is just blonde surfies from Bondi

Actually there are quite a few of the names mentioned here that are not German but in fact Wendish, Lehmann included..probably most of those that came from Silesia would be Wendish,Silesia being a part of upper Lusatia,or in the wendish language Ober Lausitz....I know this as my ancestor was Wendish and came from the same area.(they settled in the area known as St Kitts,also part of the Barossa back in the mid 1850's ).his family home that he built still stands in the town of Buchenwalde to this day (now a part of Eastern Germany).
