BAHR
Bahr Names

My Great Grandmother, Anna Wilhelmine Ernestine BAHR, was born 25^th April 1867 at Nundah, Queensland, Australia..  She married Wilhelm Friedrich SAROW on 26^th May 1887 at North Brisbane Lutheran Church, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.  Before she married Wilhelm, Anna had a daughter, Augusta BAHR.  It is unknown whether this daughter was Wilhelm’s child or the child of another relationship.  Augusta was born 15 February 1884 and died 17 October 1963.  She married Carl Friedrich SCHROEDER. Anna and Wilhelm had seven children during their marriage, but only one, my grandmother, survived childhood.  They were 

Sophie Wilhelmine Ernestine SAROW (4/4/1888 – 12/7/1970)
Wilhelm Otto SAROW (20/3/1890 – 28/9/1895)
Ernst Gottfried SAROW (13/10/1891 – 20/9/1895)
Franz SAROW (12/9/1894 – 3/11/1894)
Dorothea SAROW (12/9/1894 – 5/11/1894)
(Franz and Dorothea were twins)
Theodore Ferdinand SAROW (16/12/1895 – 7/3/1897)
Elsie Dorothy SAROW (17/5/1899 – 1899) 

Another account states that there was a daughter, Wilhelmine SAROW, who died in 1907, but omits Elsie Dorothy SAROW.

    Anna died 9 August 1927 and is buried at Toowong Cemetery, Brisbane, Queensland, along with Wilhelm and the six children who died in childhood. The grave location is Portion 4, Section 15, Allotments 28/29
