Johann Leopold Zillmann

Johann Leopold Zillmann (1813–1892)[1] was a German missionary to Australia. Born in Neu-Ulm, and a blacksmith by trade, he joined Carl Wilhelm Schmidt and Christopher Eipper at the Zion Hill Mission in what is now the Brisbane suburb of Nundah. After the mission closed, Zillmann stayed in the area and turned to farming.

The suburb of Zillmere is named for Zillmann, as are the Zillman Waterholes and Zillman Road in Brisbane.[2]
