Immigration

ZEBRA ARRIVED 1838 :- Steicke: Samuel, day-labourer (40), wife Johanne Dorothea, nee Paech (36), children Johann Gottlieb (15), Johanne Eleonore (13), Maria Elisabeth (5), Johanne Luise (2), from Kay, Brandenburg. Settled at Hahndorf, later Lobethal.[2][3]

Residence

72 Main Street Hahndorf. The first European settler on this site in 1839 was Samuel Steicke with his wife Johanne Dorothea and four children aged two to fifteen years. The Country Directory of 1844 listed the family farm as 3.5 acres growing three acres of wheat and half an acre of potatoes. Their two pigs lived in a sty built on the homestead block but the twelve cattle had to be pastured outside the village. The job of driving livestock to pasture fell to the youngsters of the family, a tradition that continued until the 1930's when herds of sheep and cattle passing through Hahndorf were still a common sight. The Steicke family was amongst several early settlers who soon looked for more land. The Steicke family moved to Lobethal in 1853[4]
