Identity: recognised as existing person #21228 (Maria Wilhelmine Ernestine Gierke) by exact date 08/07/1954 (tree 8 JUL 1954) (decisive match, exact_date).

Amanda Sprenger | Marriage | 29/04/1915 | Ernest Frederick Smith | 1915/C/1371
Index row in column order: Name | Event | Date | Spouse | Reference. The registered husband is Ernest Frederick SMITH on exactly the date family 6497 records — the evidence that this person is Amanda's husband, not her brother.
Alexander Neumann | Birth | 05/04/1891 | 1891/C/6155 | Father: Charles Neumann | Mother: Wilhelmine Kucks
QLD historical BDM index row. Own birth registration; distinguishes #21380 from the unrelated #14811 Alexander Neumann of family 4644, born 24 Jul 1891 (dup item 4670).
Robert Alfred Neumann | Birth | 15/06/1888 | 1888/C/5074 | Father: Charles Neumann | Mother: Wilhelmine Kucks
QLD historical BDM index row. Own birth registration; distinguishes #21381 (died 31 Oct 1888, already recorded) from the unrelated #14907 Robert Alfred Neumann of family 4663, son of Friedrich Wilhelm Hermann Neumann x Annie Elizabeth Schermuly (dup item 4673).
Henry Neumann | Birth | 15/01/1884 | 1884/C/6046 | Father: Carl Neumann | Mother: Wilhelmine Kucks
QLD historical BDM index row. Own birth registration; distinguishes #21383 (died 24 Jul 1884, already recorded) from the unrelated #14805 Henry Neumann of family 4644 (dup item 4668). A second son also named Henry was registered to the same parents the following year (1885/C/7060, 30 Sep 1885) - added below as a new person, since he is not yet in the tree.
Wilhelm Heinrich Sounenburg, Birth, 05/03/1887, Carl Sounenburg, Wilhelmina Trebbin, 1887/C/3310
Queensland historical index, births search. Columns: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Registration reference. 'Sounenburg' is the index transcription of Sonnenburg. Only such birth registered 5 Mar 1887; matches the tree's birth date exactly.
Maria Martha Hammelman | Birth | 03/08/1887 | father=Carl Hammelman | mother=Louise Auguste Greiser | reference=1887/C/7834
Free official index (columns: name, event, date, father, mother, reference). Exact birth-date match to the tree's existing 3 AUG 1887, and parents match Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Hammelmann (index 'Carl') and Auguste Louise Greiser (index order-flipped 'Louise Auguste') of family #6591 - confirms this is a distinct person from Maria Louise Hammelmann #21662 (different parents, family #4529), whom a duplicate_person detector paired her with on name+close birth year alone.
Name: James Denton | Event: Death | Date: 25/02/1970 | Father: Thomas Peter Denton | Mother: Alice Ann Taylor | Reference: 1970/C/1333
QLD BDM historical index row, columns as shown. The only James Denton death registered to these parents — the discriminator proving #21697 and #30176 are the one man.
August Friedrich Wilhelm Berg | Birth | 17/10/1877 | Reference 1877/C/1732 | Father: Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Erdhan Berg | Mother: Christine Wilhelmine Klatt
His son's own Queensland birth registration names this man in full as father, matching the alternate name already on this record — confirms identity/fatherhood independently of source 1067. See proposal note re: this person's separately-defective birth/arrival events, removed below.
Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Berg | Death | 21/12/1917 | Reference 1918/B/26557 | Father: - | Mother: -
Queensland death index; confirms the tree's death date exactly (21 DEC 1917) under a matching name, and is the only death of a 'Christian [Friedrich] Wilhelm Berg' registered in Queensland in the 1917-1918 window (checked against every Berg-surname death row for those two years, re-verified this pass). Father/mother columns are blank (no age given), so this row alone does not discriminate between this identity and a distinct younger 'Christian Fredich Wilhelm Berg' (b.1849) who, per the events removed from this person below, appears to have arrived in Brisbane separately in 1884 — see proposal NOT ESTABLISHED.
Queensland death index; confirms Friederike Wilhelmine Christine Anna Klatt's death date exactly (28 MAY 1918). The father column '- Klatt' is her own maiden surname (her biological father's surname) — consistent with her identity, not a defect (cf. defect-catalogue.md §8c). Registered five months after her husband's death above, an ordinary widow's-death sequence.
August Friedrich Wilhelm Berg | Birth | 17/10/1877 | Reference 1877/C/1732 | Father: Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Erdhan Berg | Mother: Christine Wilhelmine Klatt
August's own Queensland birth registration; date matches the tree exactly (17 OCT 1877).
Friederike Wilhelmine Berg | Birth | 16/11/1867 | Reference 1867/C/1624 | Father: Friedrich Wilhelm Berg | Mother: Friederika Wilhelmine Klatt
Own Queensland birth registration; date matches the tree exactly (16 NOV 1867). Shows the father already present in Queensland in 1867, 17 years before person 21913's currently-recorded 'Arrival 15 DEC 1884' event.
Julius Schubel | Birth | 28/07/1872 | Christian Frederick Schubel | Frederika Krenning | 1872/C/1330
Queensland historical birth index, searched 2026-08-29. Columns in the order quoted: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Reference. The birth date matches person #21943 to the day. The father's name fits both candidate fathers; see the proposal note. The certificate itself was not viewed.
Lilly Amelia Landford, death 05/09/1926, father George Isaac Lawrence, mother Annie Fletcher. Reference 1926/B/49938
Queensland death index. The parents match this person's exactly, so the identification is secure. She had already married Albert Ernest Baker on 19/11/1887 (1887/B/11950), which is why the 1907 marriage index names the bride Lily Baker - and which makes a birth date of 4 JUN 1896 impossible. That date is cleared rather than replaced, since no record gives her a year.
Carle Friedrich Martens | Death | 13/08/1907 | 1907/C/2405 | Ludwic Martens | Wilhelmina Fleege
Queensland BDM historical death index row; columns Name | Event | Date | Reference | Father | Mother. Death date (13/08/1907) and given/surname spelling match person #22207's recorded DEAT (13 AUG 1907, Beenleigh) exactly, identifying this as his own registration. Names his father as Ludwic Martens and mother as Wilhelmina Fleege.
Martha Mary Rose | Birth | 08/09/1875 | Friedrich Rose | Louise Dorothea Willert | 1875/C/1920
Queensland historical birth index row, quoted in the index's own column order: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Reference. Corrects the tree's birth date (10 SEP 1875) to the registered 08 SEP 1875. Parents match Friedrich Christian Rose #22227 and Louise Dorothea Wilhelmine Willert #22228 exactly, passing the identity gate.
John Carman Atherton | Death | 24/12/1943 | John Grainger Atherton | Gertrude Olive Carman | 1944/S/2018
QLD BDM death index row; matches the tree's existing exact death date. Reference prefixed 'S' — a QLD supplementary/overseas death registration, consistent with a WWII death recorded at North Lincolnshire, England.
Edmund George Atherton | Death | 09/01/1871 | Edmund Atherton | Charlotte Patterson | 1871/C/545
QLD BDM death index row; refines the tree's year-only death date, an infant death. Index inverts the given names to "Edmund George", already recorded on the tree as his AKA name.
George Thomas Atherton | Birth | 27/08/1869 | James Atherton | Mary Patterson | 1869/C/2590
QLD BDM birth index row; matches the tree's existing birth date. Distinguishes him from George Edmund Atherton #22520, son of Edmund Atherton + Charlotte Patterson.
Confirms the birth year already on the tree; the index gives an exact date. Queensland historical BDM index, births search; row values only, no per-record image opened.
Rebecca Mary Meyer | Death | 03/10/1862 | reg 1862/B/866 | father=Henry Meyer | mother=Rebecca Pearson
Death registration for the same infant (born 11 Apr 1862, died 3 Oct 1862 aged about six months) to the same parents. This is what proves the name was reused for a second daughter (#22998, b. 29 May 1864) rather than the two review-item rows being one duplicated child. Queensland historical BDM index, deaths search; row values only.
Wilhelm Christian Sempf | Birth | 11/07/1874 | Friedrich Sempf | Frederika Wieland | 1874/C/2510
Confirms birth date. Parents render abbreviated here ('Friedrich Sempf'/'Frederika Wieland') vs. the fuller form on his death registration below and already in the tree (August Friedrich Sempf x Ernestine Friederike Wilhelmine Wieland, family 7051) -- same couple, clerk shorthand.
Ludwig Meryard | Birth | 14/04/1871 | 1871/C/2784 | Father: Ludwig Meryard | Mother: Louisa Brier
'Meryard'/'Brier' are phonetic index spellings of Mergard/Beier; registered ~14 months after the first infant Ludwig's death — this is the second son who reused the name.
Ernest Frederick otherwise known as William Wieland Marriage 22/04/1887 Louisa Frederike Kachel 1887/C/1397
The register's 'otherwise known as William' matches this person's existing aka name row 'William Wieland'; Ernest Frederick is the anglicised Ernst Friedrich. Basis for filling the empty husband slot of family 7092.
