My interest in john & Mary Niemann was sparked by becoming aware of two books. "The Spirit of the Daly" Peter Forrest & Life on the Daly river" Nancy Polishuk.
John Niemann and his second wife Mary must have been quite amazing people. He was born New Zealand, moved to Sandhurst ( Bendigo), studied in Melbourne and became a Chemist, married his first wife Alice Webster, who died in Warracknabeal Vic. He married Mary nee Nicolson in Sydney.

John & Mary headed for the Northern Territory and at great risk attempted to set up a meat extract business at Victoria River. Victoria River was completely isolated and they almost came to grief on the sea voyage there. Their short stay there wasn't any improvement upon the voyage ! That didn't last long before they moved to the Daly River. At that time it also required a sea & river journey.
Both of the books mentioned, illustrate that the 'Daly' is a littany of failure, floods, crocodiles, snakes and during the wet season almost total isolation. There were very few settlers in the area even after World War 2.
The Aboriginal people were their only company and provided most of the labour for the farms, the mines and any other endeavour. By 1899 they were apparently 'peaceful' people, one suspects because they never forgot the massacres that took place after some Aboriginals killed miners in 1884. They were subsequently hunted and it is estimated 150 men women & children were murdered.
The privations for John, Mary and the two girls would have been no less than for any other settler. However both books convey a sense of community which provided something quite special & necessary !
With some understanding, but no personal experience I am totally impressed by the fact that they seemed to have been undaunted by the risks and challenges. It is little wonder they are listed conspicuously amongst the pioneers.
Not satisfied with six years on the Daly, they moved to Pine Creek. Maybe not quite as isolated but nonetheless would have required considerable determination.
The Niemann's are a 'mobile lot' . Others in the family went to New Zealand, Fiji and while closer to home, still daunting, Broken Hill. And one died (suspected murdered) off the coast of Western Australia, having 'chased his fortune' in northern Western Australia.

It is necessary to read the books to gain a better understanding of John & Mary's adventures on the Daly.
The following is an extract from "The Spirit of the Daly"
In 1899 John and Mary Niemann came from Melbourne to the Daly River, to settle at the New Uniya site which the Jesuits had recently abandoned. John Niemann was a_chemist, and he was encouraged by swashbuckling pastoralist Captain Joe Bradshaw (of Bradshaw's Run, on the Fitzmaurice River) to come north to operate a meat extract plant. There was little market for Territory live cattle, and Bradshaw resolved that it might be more profitable to slaughter cattle and to produce meat extract from their carcasses. After an abortive investigation of the Victoria River locality it was decided that the best site for the works would be on the Daly, to whence Bradshaw could walk his cattle overland.
The Niemanns were to spend the next twenty years in the Territory - on the Daly, at Pine Creek, and in Darwin. On her return to Melbourne Mary Niemann wrote a series of articles which were published in the Melbourne Leader newspaper on May 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, June 5, 12, 19, 26, July 3. 1920. Mary vividly recalled their arrival at the old mission, which Neimanns called 'Monea':
[The full article is within the Documents attached to this family ]
[A similar article is in the Niemann family book; especially the account of their brief exploit to Captain Bradshaw's cattle station.]

It is interesting, if not a little bizarre that John 'escaped' from mining to become a Chemist and yet was drawn back into mining when in the Northern Territory. He did return to his work as a Chemist when the family returned to Adelaide. Children were: Catherine Nicolson "Kit" NIEMANN (HENNESSY)-110.

On the 20th February Mr. Niemann came home from work in a cart. Two of his daughters Alice Harriet and Johanna Augusta ran out to meet him and as he drove up to his house they caught hold of the back seat to run along behind. The seat fell out on top of them.

Spouse: Mabel Inglis DICKSON (NIEMANN)-1664. Mabel Inglis DICKSON (NIEMANN) and Arthur August NIEMANN were married on 16 November 1904 in Melbourne Vic - St Andrew's Church, Carlton. A clock maker in Adelaide contacted Grant Niemann, who directed him to Trent Niemann. He had in his possession a clock which had been presented to Arthur August, by his work mates on the occasion of his marriage in 1904.
It is assumed that his brother who lived in Adelaide for some time 'inherited' the clock and at some time it had been disposed of into the marketplace.
Trent Niemann selected at random names from the White Pages for Victoria, sent off three letters ' just on spec' . Scott Niemann telephoned Trent and said he was related to Arthur August and that his father William Maxwell was a grandson of Arthur August.
Subsequently William 'Bill' Niemann contacted Trent by telephone. He says he remembers the clock. We exchanged a few bits'n pieces of family history. He was going to follow-up on the clock. Children were: Norma Edith NIEMANN-1665, Henry August "Harry" NIEMANN-1666, William Arthur NIEMANN-1667.

The Niemann Family book provides some commentary but apart from family gatherings he was something of an illusive figure.
Unfortunately most of the stories about him revolve around his liking for a beer too many.
One Christmas morning he arrived at our place 'under the weather' and as his mother was due to arrive for lunch my father installed him on a couch in the back garden to 'sleep it off'. Grandma arrived earlier than expected and from time to time noted she had not seen Cecil, but he was due for lunch. Cecil awoke still the worse for wear and there was a valiant but failed attempt to ply Cecil with coffee and 'tidy him up'. Grandma discovered him and wasn't too happy about his condition. and let him know in no uncertain terms.
He regularly drank at the Newmarket hotel. He always sat by the window. I'd discovered that if I sidled up to the window for a 'chat' he'd always give me money for an icecream. Unfortunately my father discovered my little ploy and I was grounded for some weeks and my visits to Uncle Cecil were banned !

It is difficult to understand the reason for his mother moving the family from Eaglehawk to Broken Hill. The towns do have mining as a common element but there is a world of difference between the two. Broken Hill at that time was a desolate and difficult place in which to live. It is possible that there were other members of the family who also moved to Broken Hill, but as yet no links have been uncovered. In modern times it is not difficult to understand people moving long distances but the challenges in those days must have been enormous.

Harry NIEMANN^{1151,1152,1153} was born on 13 December 1915 in Broken Hill NSW. He lived woodyard worker, miner, Mining Engineer in Broken Hill NSW between 1915 and 1958. As a young man he worked in his father's woodyard, not the best place for an asthmatic. However he was always very skilled with an axe! Eventually he joined the north Mine as a miner where he worked underground for several years. He began studying at about 27 years of age; a challenge for somebody who had left school at 14 years of age. Over the years he became a Surveyor, Geologist and finally an Engineer. It took him until he was 36 years old to achieve his qualifications. Between 1927 and 1968 he was a Mining engineer / Civil Engineer in Broken Hill NSW. Harry lived Engineer in Charge, Department of Main Roads in Wentworth NSW between 1959 and 1963. He was responsible for the supervision of the construction of the 'new' Wentworth to Broken Hill road (to about half way) and the sealing of that road. He was similarly involved in the construction of the Buronga NSW to Balranald NSW reconstruction and sealing.
He traversed the roads many times and his knowledge of Geology gave him an insight into the sources of both water and sand in otherwise clay covered country.
From time to time his family travelled with him while he was working but he never mentioned, but maybe he didn't know, that his relatives had lived in Balranald and around Pooncarie . This fact has only been uncovered since the two histories of the Nolan and Niemann families were written.
Similarly visits to Bendigo & Eaglehawk on family holidays were without reference to his familiy history. He held the qualification of Diploma in Metalliferous Mining Engineering He lived Supervising Engineer, Department of Main Roads NSW in Parkes NSW between 1964 and 1966. Harry lived Supervising Engineer (maintenance) Dept of Main Roads in Sydney NSW between 1966 and 1968. His work in Sydney was most interesting and included the maintenance of the Sydney Harbour Bridge which provided the opportunity for his sons to climb to the top (for free ! ). He also had involvement with the Captain Cook and Gladesville bridges and the Northern Expressway. He died on 22 April 1968 in Sydney NSW. A history of Asthma, which was largely untreated throughout his youth and growing years, smoking, Broken Hill dust and other occupational hazards led to his early demise. He largely ignored advice regarding his health and eventually his heart gave up the struggle. He was buried about 22 April 1968 in Sydney NSW - Macquarie Fields. Grave : Macquarie Fields North Ryde RC Grv 9 Row 47 Vaughan [Photo] Harry Niemann, had a passion for Geology and spent many hours wandering the hills around Broken Hill or anywhere he travelled. He could find water in an apparently dry creek beds, loved camping, fishing and restoring what was an old house. He regularly visited the town dump to collect broken concrete paving to create a 'crazy paving' patio alongside the house. Under the 'direction' of wife Molly he created doorways, windows, rooms and other various home comforts. The house at 634 Blende St., has been demolished but the old shed / workshop remained in 2005.
He was an asthmatic, smoker and non-drinker (until about 1960) and during the Broken Hill dust storms he struggled to breathe.
He was a strong disciplinarian but very rarely used the 'belt' when he was angry, and generally when used it was well deserved. Visions still exist of him sitting at the Kitchen table demanding the boys eat 'what was put in front of them ' and from time to time he's have the 'belt' around his neck ... he was serious. And sometimes the cooking wasn't great ! However, he cared greatly for his family and loved to pass on information, opinions etc. about life and the world in general. He was a good teacher, never getting frustrated but extremely persistent. One could never forget Pythagorus' Theorum, nor would he allow it not to be learned !
He learn many lessons from living during the 1930's economic depression and related that the family often ate rabbit, potaoes and onions day in and day out while living on the banks of the Murray at Merbein in a bag hut.
He had a passion about the value of Education, enjoyed family both immediate and extended. He was intolerant of immorality, dishonesty etc. his wrath was greatest when such principles were breached. He had high regard for and showed respect for immigrants, probably because he saw them as good honest workers.
Harry was a tolerable musician and loved to sing, play the mouth organ and struggle with the button accordian and from time to time the banjo. This love came to the fore around the camp fire on the Darling river where a family group would sit around singing mainly Irish songs. The old Irish song 'Danny Boy' is a warm reminder of Harry Niemann.
