Hi Guys My brother in law died on the bus commuting from one Suburb to another yesterday, how will I record his place of demise? At the moment I only have as Johannesburg South Africa. Lucky --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

I am sorry to hear about the passing of your brother-in-law. With car accident victims their place of death is recorded as the place were they were declared dead. Eg. If they passed on between Cape Town and Johannesburg but they were taken to morgue in Bethulie, place of death would be recorded as Bethulie. My sister's grandson was born next to the freeway between Warm baths and Pretoria. His place of birth was recorded as Pretoria were he was seen at the hospital.

Good Evening all, Can any lister assist with a site where I can find any audio recordings of the old SABC series, Die Suiker Kaskenades? I used to listen and enjoyed a thoroughly good chuckle. Regards Rod g Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

Hi Listers I am still desperately trying to find how my 2 x great grandfather William Hughes came to South Africa from Ireland. He was born c. 1830. He ended up in Port Elizabeth as his marriage and the birth of his 3 children took place there. He died there in 1880. One's mind wonders sometimes if he was on a convict ship (anything was possible those days). I read up on the Neptune which arrived in 1849 in Simon's Bay but it was left to anchor in the bay because of the Anti-Convict sentiment at the time. I was even wondering if he could of jumped ship there. I've exhausted myself on trying to find something more about him. On his death record is just shows born Ireland, so I don't even know where in Ireland that would be. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Patty

Frederick Ernst had no sisters but two brothers named James/Jimmy and Albert/Bert. I would also like to thank you for the other links, it is much appreciated. Alfred and Annie in Bromley Kent https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NKNY-MDP had a son named Frederick but the wrong second name. I will have a look at the rest. <So something is not right here. Can one remind me how one knows the names of the parents for your [Frederick Ernest Smith] ?.

Parents only had to give consent if the person was under 21 (now 18). People could apply for a special licence if they wanted to get married in a hurry, or if they were away from their usual residence. For example, my aunt and her boyfriend decided to get married when they were on holiday in Durban, though their usual residence was Johannesburg. They wanted to get married in Durban because more of their friends were there, so they got a special licence, and were married within a week. Both were of age, so neither needed their parents' permission. -- Keep well, Steve Hayes Blog: http://hayesgreene.wordpress.com Web: http://www.khanya.org.za/famhist1.htm E-mail: shayes@dunelm.org.uk ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SOUTH-AFRICA-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com
