Descendants of the Waldeck Family

Descendants of the Waldeck Family to help each other and share information about our family history

The Waldeck story began in 1836 with the arrival at the Port of Fremantle of Frederick Waldeck and Fredericka Kniest. Arriving from from Germany via England, they volunteered as Christian missionaries and were set sail to the Swan river Colony. When the young couple arrived not long after they exchanged wedding vows at St Matthew's Church in Guildford, then creating a unique story of settlers in Western Australia.

Wishing all Waldeck family members & friends a prosperous & happy New Year 🥳 stay curious 🙏

Any ideas what recipe this would be?

Just found this recipe written on the reverse of an 1864 docket-
"1 dram ? Potash
1 pint ? water warm
One wine glass three times daily "
Can you work out what the ? words are, and any idea why it would be taken?
