Evening all :)

Im wondering if anyone can help me find out a little more info on Helena Hofgartner.
So far i know the following

Helena Hofgartner born 1884 in London
Parents were Lorenz Hofgartner and Rosalie Ledaller who married in 1879.
Helena married Henry Charles Schonbeck in 1906.
They had 2 children Charles Henry Schonbeck born 1907 and Bernard Roland Schonbeck born 1909
Helena's father died from gangrene in 1892
Helena, her husband and children emigrated to Australia and died there although i dont know when they left or when she died.
I also know nothing about her between 1884 and 1906? and also know nothing about her father Lorenz.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Thank you

Rosalie Schaller

Rosalie's maiden name was Schaller, not Ledaller.

The London Parish Records for the marriage has mis transcribed her name as Ledaller. If you look at her signature on the image it does look like Schaller.

thank you joseph.. and your right moonbeam! I usually check original documents but must of missed this one...

still in the UK in 1911

If this is your Henry Schonbeck, it does mean that they didn’t migrate until after WW1
