Biography

Anna Rosina Langer (see note) was born about 1780 in Sawade Silesia. She was the wife of Gottfried Kowald who died in Germany before Anna Rosina and her children migrated to South Australia.

She migrated to Australia as a 58 year old widow in 1841 on the Skjold with her daughter Anna Elizabeth Fellenberg (30) also a widow, her sons; Frederich (25) , Johann Christoph (20) son unnamed, and daughters; Anna Dorothea (18) and Luise (12)[1]

Anna Rosina KOWALD died on the 13th of April 1871 in Blumberg South Australia. Her age was given as 91. She was buried at the Birdwood(Blumberg ) Lutheran Cemetery.[2]

Research Notes

Anna’s maiden name is contentious. It was possibly Langer but an original source is needed. Thomson-4079

I doubt that Johann Friedrich Irmler is her son. Thomson-4079

Hi Dee.

Anna Rosina Laenger-Kowald was my 3rd gt grandmother and through dna matching I have discovered she was married twice and was a Irmler by birth. Her Irmler relatives actually accompanied her on her voyage to South Australia on the Skojld It was amazing to discover a whole new branch of my family but also to tie in the Irmler Barrien line who connect to my mother’s Swayn family Regards Rosalie Kluske-Panasewycz Ps gt gt granddaughter of Johanne Dorothea Kowald-Eisen and Johann Samuel Eisen

Langer-230 and Langer-184 appear to represent the same person because: Hi , I think we have a match here. Are you happy to merge them into one?

Cheers Dee
