From the Adelaide Observer, Saturday 21 December 1901:
 
" Mr. John Bohlmann, a colonist of 55 years, died at his residence, Kermode street, North Adelaide, on Tuesday night, at the age of 90 years. The deceased gentleman was born in Bremen, Germany, in 1811, and arrived in South Australia by the ship Patell in 1846. Soon after coming to this state he joined the Locomotive Department, which was then established at Bowden. Mr. Bohlmann retired in 1888, having retained the respect and regard of his superior officers and fellow-workmen. He resided in North Adelaide for 51 years, and up to within a few days of his death he enjoyed fairly good health. He has left a widow, three sons—Messrs. H. Bohlmann, of H.M. Customs; J. Bohlmann, of Messrs. H. Muecke & Co., Port Adelaide; and Mr. G. Bohlmann—and three daughters."<ref>{{cite news |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title= Concerning People|url=https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/161769741 |work= Adelaide Observer |location=Adelaide, South Australia |date=21 Dec 1901 |access-date=}}</ref>
