    1. [CORNISH-GEN] Shugg - South Africa
    2. Rowena Gough
    3. Dear Listers I am researching Shugg's who spent time in South Africa, and am wondering if anyone can assist me. Any help or further information with any of the Shugg records would be greatly appreciated. William Bryant Shugg appears to have spent time in the Cape Town area as he was on the 1882 voter's list under the Cape Town Electoral Division. He was married to a Mary Stevens who may have died on the Cape as I've not been able to find a death in Cornwall. 2 of their children were born on the Cape, as noted in the 1891 UK Census: 1) William Stevens Shugg born c.1883 Cape Town, SA. He married Jane Quick Allen in 1905, Penzance RD. 2) Elizabeth 'Bessie' Shugg born c.1885, Cape town, SA. She married under the name Bessie and may be registered under Bessie. She married in 1906 to either Frank Ladner or William Stevens Veal, Penzance RD. Their other children were: . Mary Stevens Shugg b.1874, St Ives who married Samuel Kemp in 1897. . Eliza Ann Thomas Shugg b.1887, bapt 1890 St Ives. Unable to find a marriage or death record for her on FreeBMD. . Bryant Shugg b.1889 and bapt 1890 St Ives. Married in the USA, and lived in Houghton, Michigan. Died Michigan in 1971. A google search showed 10 records on the South African Ancestry site, and as this is the only South African connection I have, a subscription for 6 months is too expensive for me. Would anyone be able to help with these folk?
