Hi Bill and anyone researching Cornish roots in South Africa, Any chance of looking up in the book of Cornish immigrants to South Africa for the surname of PROUT. I have two Cornish ancestors, one - Nigel Elford - Prout whom I know a little about, and another just found - Frederick Prout. I have only just found out about Frederick, and wonder if there is any mention in the book about the surname. He would have been there pre 1st WW, come back to fight in France and Germany, and then returned to South Africa. Any help greatly appreciated - from anyone? Isabel.
