Summary
A Genealogical study of the Families of Frederick Heckendorf and a Record of Their Descendants, 1808-1982, 127 Years in Australia. In 1855, Frederick and Julianna Heckendorf and their children departed Hamburg on the SS Steinwarder for a new life in Australia. In 1869, they moved to Wodonga and it wasn't long before they set up a dairy farm at Willow Park. One hundred years later, the farm was in the hands of Fredrick's great grandson Les Boyes. In the 1970s the land was acquired by the Albury-Wodonga Development Corporation, which had the goal of developing Albury-Wodonga into a major inland city.
