Johann Heinrich RENK and Katharina Dorothea DALDORF came from Germany. I am trying to find their Birth and Death dates and exactly where they came from in Germany. The only information I have is their son Johann Jurgen RENK (1830 - 1890) migrated to Sth. Australia in 1881 with his 2 sons and his wife Dorothea Elizabeth (nee TALG) (1843 - 1942). He came from Neetze at the time of his migration.

Any help will be appreciated, I will be making a separate post for information on Dorothea TALG.

Hope that Beatrice does not delete them both (as individually instructed) we need somewhere to add info.

Johann Jurgen RENK (1830 - 1890)

Do you have Johann's death certificate ?

Australian death certificates usually have lots of extra info.

Researching:
Ablett, Baldwin, Coombe, Daniels, Edkins, Pascoe, Prowse, Seager

Upon further investigationI found that Johann Died on 19 Jan 1890, at Adelaide, aged 62yrs
Registration Info.
District .. Ade.
Bk. .. 183
Pg. .. 277

I also found that Dorothea/Dorothy re-marriad in 1912 so she was probably the "informant" who gave the info for Johann's death certificate.
Hopefully her info should have been correct.

Her marriage registration states that her father was 'Heinrich Taly(Talg)
