Personal Notes:

Honours and Awards: Arthur Frederick Von Stieglitz Service Number: 1643 Rank: Corporal Unit: 3rd Australian Field Artillery Brigade Service: Army Conflict: First World War, 1914-1918 Award: Military Medal Date of Commonwealth of Australia Gazette: 20 December 1917 Location in Commonwealth of Australia Gazette: Page 3378, position 105 Date of London Gazette: 16 August 1917 Location in London Gazette: Page 8428, position 136 Brisbane Queenslander 17 Nov 1917 The "Toowoomba Grammar School Magazine" notes in the issue just received that 336 old boys had enlisted up to November 1. More recent recruits from the ranks of the boys included F. A. von Stieglitz, and the "Magazine" states that this "gives that family the record- all five sons of Mrs. E. B. von Stieglitz being now in khaki. One of them, Aubrey, has by conspicuous gallantry not only won the M.C., but also become engaged to an English lady."

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000 Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work. Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year. Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne). I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find. If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources. g.bell@bigpond.net.au When you click the mail address abouve, if it does not open your email app, copy the address on the screen.
