Farmhouse, Gawler
The Groth farm house near Gawler. [This would be the property of Jacob Henry Groth, married 23 March 1892, Presbyterian Manse, Gawler. His father Jacob Heinrich Groth was a farmer according to his naturalisation records. Wife of Jacob Henry was Mary Sars Christie Taylor, whom anecdotally within the family is thought to have died in an early vehicle accident in Gawler's main street. Information provided by Helen Birkett] Additional information supplied by a researcher: This is the Groth farm house near Gawler (Sandy Creek/Cockatoo Valley), of Jacob Heinrich and Maria Rosina Groth, who purchased this property circa 1853. Your description that the house was owned by his son at the time this photo was taken is incorrect, though he and his family did return to this vicinity in the 1920s after living at Teal Flat, Sandlewood and One Tree Hill. James Henry Groth's wife (nee Mary Sars Christie) was killed in a car accident in Jacob St Gawler March 10 1927 (The Register, Friday 11 March 1927 page 9). According to a researcher, this is the farming property of Jacob Heinrich and Maria Rosina Groth who owned this house and farming land from circa 1853 to 1880. The property was located in the Sandy Creek/Emilienthal district near Gawler. Their son, also named Jacob Heinrich (Henry) Groth married Mary Sars Christie Taylor but were never the owner of this property. The photograph is circa 1860.
