The family departed from Hamburg on 16 December 1874, on the sailing ship Fritz Reuter, and arrived in Napier on 18 March 1875. Mathias was a farm labourer in Denmark, and the family had a farm at Norsewood.

      Matilda married Chris Berkahn in 1894, and had 13 children. Matilda died in 1922 and was buried in Norsewood Cemetery.
