Georg Frauenfeld - Notes on a Visit to Australia 1858, on board the Novara (8035 words)
The precise chronology of Frauenfeld's visit to Sydney and his various excursions to the north (Newcastle), south (Illawarra) and to later Botany Bay, is therefore subject to some conjecture, largely due to the lack of precise dates within his published 'Notes'.
Frauenfeld was not part of this group (he is not mentioned in Karl Scherzer's detailed diary account of the visit), and does not appear to have encountered them at any stage during his travels in the region.
In the original article Frauenfeld here states 'Bathurst Plain', however as this is located on the western side of the Blue Mountains, and is not visible from Mitchell's Pass on the south side of Appin, it is obviously an error.
