German migrants embarking on FAIRSEA, Columbus Quay, Bremerhaven

    I'm interested people with this surname who emigrated to Australia: DRUGEMULLER I have a couple of photographs of Ron Drugemuller from the 1940s in Brisbane.

    Renira1 Hi there, the museum's library has an info sheet on all the different resources for researching immigration. You can also drop our expert librarians a line if you need assistance with your research :)
  • Fiona Tellesson said:
    Hi I believe that the date on the back of the photo as quoted, may be incorrect. My father left on the Fairsea in September 1953, crossing the equator on 8 October 1953, arriving in Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia 17 October 1953. I hope this helps as I've been unable to find the date of the actual departure, as yet.

    Based on the age of the children some of those children might still be alive to tell the story of this photo it would be nice to see someone could find one of them
  • Elizabeth Miller said:

    Sean Ryan Excellent! Thank you... :) Have now added this pic to the map - always makes me very happy to have a location, and this information can shortly be added to the original catalogue record.
