  1. Catherine Wenz,   b. 29 Jul 1833, Hattenheim, Germany d. 11 Sep 1901, Oakleigh, Victoria, Australia  (Age 68 years) ▻ Henry Arundell,  m. 7 Feb 1853 ;   John Quarry Cotter,  m. 20 Mar 1857
  Notes	On 23 April 1838 Catherine Wenz , then aged 4 years, arrived in Sydney with her father Johann (John) aged 44, her mother Julia Anne (nee Webster) also aged 44, and her two older sisters Margaret aged 15 and Anna Maria aged 8 . They were one of six families brought out to Australia from the wine-growing town of Hattenheim on the Rhine by Edward, James, and William MacArthur, to look after their vineyards at Camden under a five year contract . According to some reports, the MacArthurs treated their employees very badly and the Wenz family was probably glad to end their employment on 22 Feb 1845. They then moved to Lochinvar in the Hunter Valley north of Sydney, where John was later described as an innkeeper. John was naturalised in 1849 and died at Lochinvar in 1853; his wife died there two years later. [1]
