My fourth great grandparents Georg Nebel and 

Anna Dorothea nee Shultz came to Australia with other family members in 1855 on board the Danish ship Acmel.
Many of those Prussian (German) settlers are buried at Thomastown (Westgarthtown) Lutheran Cemetery.



The photos below show the Nebel family plot.
