Carl Friedrich and Emma SCHUETZE nee BUERMANN

line

(NOTE: the following information may contain excerpts from material provided by D Wilson (courtesy of Phoebe Prime nee Schuetze per her son Ken) from various publications and research by other people. Information is included in good faith.

Carl Friedrich Schuetze (2nd son of Gottlieb Andreas and Maria Dorothea nee Roediger) was born 28 May 1845 in Kochstedt, Germany. He arrived with his parents and brothers Gottlieb Wilhelm and Friedrich Eduard in Australia on the “Wilhelmina Maria” in 1849.

He was a tall man (5ft. 11 inches) and joined the Police Force as a Police Sawyer. He became a Mounted Trooper on the 4th July 1867 but resigned 18 months later as a 3rd Class Mounted Trooper.

NOTE: details from South Australian Police Historical Society Inc. state “commenced duty with the SA Police July 4, 1867. His very brief service record listed him initially as a 3rd class Mounted Constable - this has been ruled out and replaced with the word “Trooper” (“Mounted Constable” replaced the term “Police Trooper” in 1884).

Other information given is his date of birth - 1848, place of birth - Berlin, and previous occupation - Lawyer. This latter I imagine has been confused somewhere along the line and shown as sawyer. He is shown as having resigned on February 28, 1869.


Carl Friedrich married Emma Emelia Buermann 14 July 1869 at St Johns Church, Mt Pleasant, South Australia. They had 5 children - Emma born 15 February 1870, died 21 February 1870 - Rosalie Emma Dorothea born 21 March 1871, died 9 August 1872 (from family bible). Their next born was Frederick Charles (5 March 1874) who married Rosalie Valeska Gass. Another daughter Ida Louise was born 12 January 1882, she died aged 18 on 8 September 1900 and is buried at Mannum. Clara Louise was born 22 April 1884, she married Gottlieb Heinrich Mann.

During his lifetime Carl Friedrich (Charles Frederick) carried on the trade of Publican at the Palmer Hotel (15 kms from Mannum) - the nearby Reedy Creek mine then being at its peak. In 1875 he and Emma took up land at Mannum adjoining what is now the Show Grounds - the district at that time being virgin scrub. In 1894 the family moved on to a river farm 10 miles from Mannum.

Carl died on the 30th December 1906 and is buried in the cemetery at Mannum. His widow Emma lived on for a further 31 years - she died 3 October 1937 and is also buried in the Mannum cemetery.
