| III. Barbara * 18 March 1847 % John STOLTENBERG on 12 Feb 1866 Singleton (RC) + 28 February 1931, Narrabri Children who died in infancy:
Gillian Baker notes (June 2001): I have been on a long hunt for the property that Stoltenbergs lived on when they first married and I have found it (I think). I have also been given some information on the land holdings of Andrew and Henry Dries around Ravensworth. Old William Dries was listed as a orchardist or gardener and his landholding and stock records seem to indicate he was what we would call a market gardener. John Stoltenberg lived close by and may have helped his father-in-law. Andrew and Henry on the other hand seemed to have made their living from stock. |

Based on original research kindly shared by Barbara Ames (a descendant) and a later, more detailed chart by Maureen Crawley. This line has since been been further researched by Gillian Baker (also a descendant) who owns copies of photographs of William and Catherine Dries (nee Dries) and Barbara and John Stoltenberg, and may have access to pictures of John and Johanna as well. I can provide her E-mail address if you seek more information. Gary Standen (see above) also supplied additional dates, and Arthur Passtoors and Anne Dries kindly helped with their branches.
