CHRISTIAN FREDRICH AUGUST SANFT left Prussia (Germany) at the age of 26 years old and traveled to Boston (USA) than to California for the California Gold Rush. He made a small fortune and than traveled onto Australia looking for more gold. He heard about the coconut oil in the islands, which in those days was almost as valuable as gold. He arrived in Tonga in 1864 at the age of 42. He than sent for SOPHIE DOERNER from Germany and they were married once she arrived Tonga. CHRISTIAN was the only one of his brother’s and sister to come to Tonga.

In early 1872 (abt 10 years later), eight of his nephews arrived and a 2nd cousin (Herman Guttenbeil) came to Tonga. There were 4 nephews from his older brother WILHELM GOTTLIEB HEINRICH SANFT who married CHRISTINE CAROLINE GUERR. The 4 out of their 10 children who were sent to Tonga were: their 3rd child: FRANZ CARL (FALANISI) SANFT, their 4th child: FREDRICH WILHELM ALBERT (‘ALIPATE) SANFT, their 5th child: OTTO ADOLF (‘ALOFI) SANFT, and their 9th child: FREDERICH WILHELM ALBERT (OTO) SANFT).
