Of course, the old Baron had known all his life that he was connected to the Von Scheer family. Turned out that his great, great ..what ever grand-father had come to Australia with his Jewish wife to avoid the jew hatred he had seen in Europe.
So he decided that it was not for him and he hightailed it to the Colonies where he and his family started a new life and a trust was established for his descendants , if one was worthy enough to carry his name into the future.

So, years past, more years passed and one was. His name was Dr.Andreas von Scheer / Cheer. He normally used the Andrew Klein, and he had had an interesting life.
