Valentine's Day 1874 occurred during the sixty-one years this history records (1849-1910) about a Deutschland-Aotearoa New Zealand family. Theresia Moellers and Carl Alve married in the Ruhr Valley on this day, and just over two years later they disembarked from an emigrant ship at Port Nicholson, Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand. This study celebrates their marriage and asks two primary questions. Why did they leave Germany when they did? And, what happened to them in their new homeland subsequently until 1910? In the process we will discover how their romance worked out!
