I am interested in my late grandfathers parents.Grandfather was Reinholt Gottfried Bethke born 3 Jan 1875 somewhere in Prussia/Germany. He sailed into Melbourne, Australia 1891 on the "Carlsruhe". His mother was Auguste Kelm B. 27 Aug 1852 (her father was Andreas Kelm b. 1824) of Prussia. He married his cousin Alma Nuske (her mother was Wilhelmine Nuske nee Kelm) in Australia.
