Free official index. Death rows name BOTH parents, which is what makes it the key to an emigrant's parentage in the country they left. Certificates are purchased separately and were not viewed.
"Emil Albert Robert Buhse | Marriage | 24/04/1929 | Theresa Maria Schulz | 1929/C/1286"
Index row field values in the index's own column order: subject, record type, date of event, other party, registration number. Queensland marriage rows carry no parents. Confirms the family's existing start date of 24 APR 1929; the index spells her Theresa Maria Schulz.
Robina Jane Reardon | Death | 11/01/1973 | William Caddies | Laura Verron | 1973/C/1687
This death registration names both parents (William Caddies + Laura Verron), corroborating Robina Jane's existing parent-child link to family 868 (spelling variant 'Verron' vs tree's 'Verran' only). This part is uncontested; only the death date above is.
Daphne Clare Reardon | Death | 25/06/1941 | James John Thomas | Robina Jane Caddies | 1941/C/3792
This death registration names both parents (James John Thomas [Reardon] + Robina Jane Caddies), corroborating Daphne Clare's existing parent-child link to family 869.
Wilfred George Springfall, Marriage, 22/12/1896, Emma Gibson Gostelow, 1896/C/1830
Queensland historical index, marriages search. Columns: Name, Event, Date, Spouse, Registration reference. 'Springfall' is the index transcription. Matches family #1388's recorded start date of 22 DEC 1896.
Peter Murray | Death | 14/02/1920 | Thomas Murray | Esther Rodgers | 1920/C/571
Same death index row; confirms #5777's previously-uncited birth-parent link to this family (Thomas McCall Murray #5784 x Esther Rodgers #6523), which the tree already records but had no citation for.
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. The Father column is BLANK. The only child of this family; the child's full name matches exactly and the mother is indexed 'Violet Percilla' where the tree has Violet Priscilla.
name: James Alfred Titmarsh; event: Marriage; date: 18/04/1905; reference: 1905/C/1219; spouse: Frances Baines
Groom James Alfred Titmarsh x bride Frances Baines (her surname from her first marriage to Ebenezer Robert Baines, family 554) is a unique pairing; no other James Alfred Titmarsh x Frances Baines marriage exists in the index. Contradicts the tree's existing uncited 18 APR 1904.
Johannes Friedrich Naumann | Birth | 01/04/1901 | Carl Heinrich Naumann | Wilhelmina Kretschmann | 1901/C/2385
Queensland historical birth index row, same columns. Retrieved 2026-08-29. Cited here because it rules this couple out as William Henry's parents: their own son was born fourteen days after him.
Charles August Julius Lorenz Marriage 23/08/1877 Lina Hais 1877/B/5724
QLD BDM historical marriage index, columns Name / Event / Date / Spouse / Reference. 'Lina' is likely a diminutive of Magdalena, this family's recorded wife (surname Hais matches exactly); the full triple given name 'Charles August Julius Lorenz' is a strong discriminator against any other Lorenz in the index.
William Henry Retschlag married Ida Minna Lutz, 26/10/1910. Reference 1910/C/1591
Queensland marriage index. Confirms the date family 2678 already holds. Family 3826 is a duplicate of this same union - same wife, same marriage date, same three children, but with the husband slot empty and no provenance - and is removed below.
Auguste Louise Fritz | Marriage | 29/07/1903 | Charles Fred Dieckmann | 1903/C/799
Queensland historical index, marriage search on surname Fritz / given Auguste, retrieved 2026-08-29. Columns: name | event | date | spouse | registration number. The only Fritz-Dieckmann marriage in the index; it is the marriage recorded on both family #1107 and family #2732. Restored from failed proposal #471.
Julius Kitzelmann married Bertha Kruger, 14/08/1879, 1879/C/1172. Children registered to Julius Edward Kitzelmann and Bertha Emilie Kruger include Marie Elisabeth 29/05/1882 (1882/C/5123) and Dora Attilie Alvina 12/07/1900 (1900/C/9092).
This is where the 1879 marriage belongs: Julius Eduard Kitzelmann (#20998, b. 1843) and Emilie Auguste Bertha Kruger (#9331). The family had no marriage date; it now has the exact one.
Frederick Zabel married Elizabeth Kitzelmann, 20/02/1900, 1900/C/1096. Wilhelm Friedrich Zabel, born 11/01/1901, father Frederick Zabel, mother Elizabeth Kitzelmann, 1901/C/8450.
Gives the exact marriage date for the year held and confirms the child link to Frederick Zabel. Three further registered children of the couple are not in the tree: Dore 15/03/1904 (1904/C/8676), Christena 21/11/1907 (1908/C/4685), Hilda Louise 13/03/1909 (1909/C/5227).
Arnold William Borghardt Keding Birth 15/04/1909 Bertha Christina Keding 1909/C/11136
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. The Father column is BLANK. The only child of this family; both the child's full name and the mother's full name match the tree exactly.
Edwin Ethehed Galvin | Marriage | 06/01/1896 | Fanny Hope Raymond | 1896/C/1327
Queensland historical marriage index row, columns Name | Event | Date | Spouse | Reference. Exact name match for both spouses. The tree's 1886 is a transcription error (86 for 96); 6 Jan 1896 makes Fanny 20/21 at marriage, one year before Edwin's 1897 death, and before her 1900 remarriage to Thomas Armstrong.
"Christian Scheuerle - marriage 31/03/1910 - other party: Anna Vohland - 1910/C/2917"; "Clarence Edward Scheuerle - died 28/12/1982 - father: Christian Wilhelm Scheuerle - mother: Anna Vohland"
The marriage and the children are real: Clarence's death registration names both parents. The husband is a Christian Wilhelm Scheuerle born about 1885, who does not appear in the Queensland birth index 1878-1910 and was probably born abroad. The person formerly in this slot (6682) was born 3 JUN 1904 and cannot be him, so the slot has been emptied rather than filled with a guess.
Ethel Truloff | Marriage | 06/04/1939 | Leonard Hamilton Yates | 1939/C/1892
Queensland historical marriage index; the same row is returned searching either spouse. Marriage rows carry no parents, so the identification of the bride rests on the two birth registrations and the death registration of the 1893 Ethel.
Johann Althaus | Marriage | 02/02/1899 | Elisabeth Freyling | 1899/C/620
Queensland historical index, marriage search on surname Althaus, retrieved 2026-08-29. Columns: name | event | date | spouse | registration number. The only Althaus-Freyling marriage in the index, matching the date recorded on families #3544 and #3638. Restored from failed proposal #486.
Name: Friedrich Wilhelm Neumann | Event: Death | Date: 13/04/1948 | Reg. No.: 1948/C/1649 | Father: Friedrich Wilhelm Neumann | Mother: Auguste Anna Dorothea Zillmann
Death index row naming both parents, confirming the family link is correct; only the birth year (transcribed as 1844) was wrong.
Wilfred John Freidman | Marriage | 02/12/1924 | Mabel Grace Harris | 1924/B/35967
Queensland historical marriage index row, field values in the index's own column order: Name | Event | Date | Spouse | Registration reference. Retrieved 29 Aug 2026 via familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au, marriages, surname Freidman, spouse Harris — the only row with both full names.
Eleven Queensland birth registrations 1887-1908 name the parents as Hermann Wendt and Anna/Annie Spann.
Confirms every child link in this family, so the impossible ages came from the mother's birth date alone. Her son Hermann Wendt's death registration (1966/C/2199) likewise names his mother as Annie Spann.
Friedrich Wilhelm Hermann Neumann m. Annie Schermuly, Marriage, 12/12/1885, 1885/C/895
#14900's own marriage registration. A separate Neumann-Goschnick marriage is registered as 1891/C/1036 (Hermann Friedrich Carl Neumann m. Wilhelmine Goschnick). Two men, two wives, two registrations - #14900 is not #14773.
Charles Arthur Mountford Birth 07/06/1894 Stella Mountford 1894/C/1453 | Alice Mountford Birth 25/01/1897 Stella Mountford 1897/C/1409
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference; rows separated by a pipe. The Father column is BLANK in both rows. Both children of this family are present.
Percy Otto Carl Spann, born 06/09/1912, father Hermann Carl Christian Spann, mother Mathilda Theresia Friedricke Zahnow, 1912/C/6758. Eva Mary Spann, born 20/03/1916, father Herman Charlie Christian, mother Matilda Theresa Fredricka Dennien known as Zahnow, 1916/C/5547.
The 1916 registration gives the mother both names, Dennien and Zahnow, which is the widow of Zahnow born Dennien - i.e. #31661, not her dead infant daughter #31665. The wife slot is repointed accordingly; the child link to Percy stays. Eva Mary Spann b. 1916 is a second registered child not yet in the tree.
William Spann Birth 06/01/1897 Augusta Spann Cook 1897/B/59619 | John William Erick Spann Birth 14/08/1901 Augusta Spann 1901/B/3332 | Alexander James Oscar Spann Birth 18/02/1909 Augusta Spann 1909/C/3094
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference; rows separated by a pipe. The Father column is BLANK in every row. All three children of this family are present. The 1897 row gives the mother as 'Augusta Spann Cook'.
Benjamin Gottfried Spann | Marriage | 03/04/1918 | Alwine Martha Lindemann | 1918/C/1259
Queensland historical marriage index; fields as returned in the order name | event | date | spouse | registration reference. The only Spann-Lindemann marriage in the index.
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. The Father column is BLANK. The only child of this family; all four given names match. The mother is indexed Martha Helena where the tree has Martha Lena.
Wilhelm Berlin, Marriage, 02/04/1875, Wilhelmina Dommro, 1875/C/241
Queensland historical index, marriages search. Columns: Name, Event, Date, Spouse, Registration reference. Matches family #5400's recorded start date of 2 APR 1875.
August Friedrich Wilhelm Eichmann married Auguste Albertine Wilhelmine Billian, 31/01/1884, 1884/C/911.
Gives the exact marriage date for the year already held. The couple's other children are all registered to them: Ernst Hermann Trangott 15/03/1886 (1886/C/5131), August Friedrich Carl 26/05/1890 (1890/C/7934), Martha Annie 04/08/1891 (1891/C/7773), Ida Theresa 16/08/1892 (1892/C/7765), Hermann Gustav 19/09/1893 (1893/C/7134) - so only Ivy's link was wrong.
Albert Qwalischefski married Margaretha Ullrich, 30/09/1874, 1874/C/281. Children registered to Albert Qualischefski and Margaretha Ullrich: Joseph 25/06/1877 (1877/C/5581), Albert 20/10/1881 (1881/C/4996), Alfons 23/04/1884 (1884/C/6167), Mary Teresa 06/01/1892 (1892/C/9346). Margaretha Qualischefski, death 07/07/1916, father Lukas Ullrich, mother Katherina Selzer, 1916/C/3504.
The marriage date 1874 is correct, the wife is correct (her death names Lukas Ullrich and Katherine Selsen, matching #18100 and #18101), and every child link is correct. Only the husband was the wrong man.
