Read More	Native of Glauberg, Catherina died shortly after disembarking from an immigrant ship voyage to Australia during which her sister also died in transit. The Fuchs family arrived Moreton Bay 17 January 1864, on board "Susanne Goddefroy": Adam FUCHS, 33, from Glauberg, Hessen, Darmst Catherine FUCHS, 31, from Glauberg, Hessen, Darmst Maria FUCHS, 9, Wilhelm FUCHS, 7, Heinrich FUCHS, 5, Caroline FUCHS, aged 2 [died on the voyage to Australia] Catherine FUCHS, 6 months THE SUSANNE GODDEFROY. The Susanne Goddefroy sailed from Hamburg on the 21st September, and discharged the pilot at Cuxhaven, on the 24th of the same month. Immediately after sailing she encountered very severe weather, by which she was detained fifteen days in the North Sea, and did not make the South Foreland on the British coast, till the 15th day out. Madeira was made on the 37th day out, the ship having been delayed by contrary winds. After that she got the trade winds, which carried her to the Cape of Good Hope. While making her easting be- tween the Cape and the Island of Tristan d'Acunha she met very heavy weather, and sprung the main mast, foremast, foretopmast, and fore yard. These were "fished" with the spare spars, but the acci- dent tended somewhat to lengthen the passage. However she was only 39 days in making the southernmost point of Tasmania, after leaving Tristan d'Acunha. She made Cape Moreton in nine days, and was boarded by Pilot Cooper at 7.30 p.m. on Sunday last, the 17th instant. She rounded the Cape, and brought up in the Road- stead off the bar on the following day. Dr. Hobbs, the health-officer, visited her on Tuesday evening, and having found the passen- gers in good health, passed her. She has on board 369 German immigrants, many of whom, we are informed, are skilled workmen. We under- stand that arrangements have been made to land them to-day. The Susanne Goddefroy is a new ship, of 914 tons, British measurement, and is classed as A1 for nine years. She was built in Lubeck for the firm of Messrs. Goddefroy and Co., and it may be mentioned that this is her first voyage. Reckon- ing from the time of her leaving the Lizard Point till she first sighted Cape Moreton, she made the run in 95 days. Captain Mueller reports having passed a small iron steamer, name unknown, bound to Bombay, and also an American barque, about three or four days sail from Tristan d'Acunha. She was from Buenos Aires to Mauritius, with a cargo of mules. While off Cape Moreton, a square-rigged vessel was seen standing to the north. She is supposed to be the Wansfell, bound to Port Denison with immi- grants. The Susanne Goddefroy brings thirteen saloon passengers, namely, Mr. Smith and family, and Messrs. Burg and Stolnenow. During the pass- age there were eleven deaths of infants and one birth.
