They came back to Germany (Liebenburg, Prussia / Hanover), but they supposedly had relatives who had moved to Australia earlier. These relatives might (!) have been Johanna Louise Sophie Kiehne,
b. 1842 in Beinum (married to Hermann Hartmann of Othfresen) who lived in Dundee until the 1920s. There are quite a few missing links though! William Kiehne
Kiene Diena Kiehne Bertha Berthe Keene
