George Henry Backhaus
George Henry Backhaus (15 February 1811 Paderborn – 7 September 1882 Bendigo), was a Catholic priest and one of nine children of a boot merchant. He studied with distinction in Paderborn, going from there to Rome to study for the priesthood at the ''College of the Propagation of the Faith'', graduating D.D. in 1836 and being ordained on 24 August 1836. His enthusiasm for mission work took him to India, sailing from Ireland as chaplain, and later working at Berhampur in the vicariate of Bengal. He stayed there for several years and in 1841 visited Ireland, returning to India with some Loreto Sisters from Rathfarnham.
==Leaving India==
Health problems with his liver forced him to leave India in 1846 for a cooler climate. Calling at Singapore and Batavia, he landed in Australia, spending eleven months in Sydney, and finding an outlet for his musical talents with the ''Sydney Metropolitan Choir''. Hearing that the Bishop of Adelaide was looking for a priest for the German Catholics in his diocese, Backhaus decided to fill the post. Leaving Sydney on 20 October 1847, he endured demanding conditions in Adelaide for more than four years. During this period he resolved to make the Australian mission his life work.〔(Australian Dictionary of Biography )〕
